Pulsatilla cernua is
a perennial herb growing in sunny grasslands, significantly hairy.
Radical leaves are bipinnately compound, with long petioles, and the
leaflets cleft afresh into 2-3 segments. As the flower stalks grow
up to as high as 10 cm, flowers bloom, extending to about 40cm in
height when flowering ends. On-stem leaves, petiole-less and bonding
at bases together, are in a whorl of three, each thinly cleft into
leaflets. Flower buds singly emerge on the tips of flower stalks and
bloom facing downwards. The bell-shaped flowers measure
approximately 3cm in diameter, with no petals; sepals are
petal-like, 6 in number; insides are dark purple-red, and outsides
look whitish since being covered densely with silky white hairs.
There are many stamens in the same way as pistils; long hairs are
close together on styles. Bloom time: April-May. |
