Poppy Anemone (Anemone Coronaria)
First in the "Flowers of Israel" Series
The poppy anemone is one of the cutest flowers in Israel. From the moment it appears, you cannot but notice it, even from a distance. Its petals turn towards the sun and follow its rays during the day. Its concave flower-head collects the sun's rays, raising the temperature of the stamens and black stigmas in its center, by as much as 10 degrees Celsius. This speeds up germination of the pollen grains and prevents them from being washed away by rain. While poppy anemones in the south of Israel are red, those that grow in the north of the country can be red, white, blue or purple. Flower beetles prefer the red flowers, while bees and flies are attracted by all the colors.
