ANEMONE JAPONICA. 
has been regarded as a hardy plant, grown in ordinary garden-earth, and is freeh 
increased by suckers or offsets. 
The history of this Anemone , which has long been known to botanists, may b<| 
found at page 20 of last volume, but our plant is another of the best results of th( 
Chinese floricultural mission of the Horticultural Society. Their collector forwardec 
the species from Shunghae to the Society’s garden, where it arrived in 1844. Plants 
in Mr. Glendinning’s establishment, Turnham Green, Chiswick, furnished the 
subject of our drawing in October last. 
A Greek word signifying wind, owing to many of the genus growing naturally in 
elevated and exposed situations, has been selected for the foundation of the generic 
name.
