Re: Denver trip - anemone


A. tomentosa: the word tomentose means the leaves are densely woolly or with
matted hairs.  A. tomentosa's mid-green leaves are tomentose on the
underside. Flowers are descrtibed as pale pink.
A. ?. 'Robustissima' 's leaves are larger than A. tomentosa's and they are
grey-green beneath.  Flowers are described as soft pink and numerous.
