AMONG THE WILD FLOWERS. 25 
The Wild Heartsease, V. ¢vzcolor, the miniature 
of the Pansy, is of this genus; it does not 
bloom till May. 
Everywhere on banks and in woods now 
appear the flowers of Anemone nemorosa, the 
Wood Anemone. The yellow species, A. 
Ranunculotdes, is naturalized in several coun- 
ties, and introduced into gardens; as also is the 
blue one, 4. Apennzna. The Pasque Flower, 
A. Pulsatilla, is truly wild in some eastern 
counties. This genus belongs to the Ranun- 
CULACE& : so also does the common but gor- 
geous Marsh Marigold, Caltha Palustris, as 
rich a flower as can be found, and abundant 
throughout the land in marshy meadows. All 
these are good illustrations of Linn. Class 
XIIL., Polyandria.
