Anemone

"The anemone flower suggests abandonment.

Anemone is a genus of about 120 species of flowering plants in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae in the north and south temperate zones. The plants are perennial herbs with an underground rootstock, and radical, more or less deeply cut, leaves.

The fruits often bear long hairy styles which aid their distribution by the wind — 'windflower' is a common name sometimes used for members of the genus family."
