Pulsatilla montana (Hoppe) Rchb., syn.: Anemone montana Hoppe, Pulsatilla vulgarisEN: Mountain Pasqueflower, DE: Berg-KchenschelleSlo.: gorski kosmatinecDat.: Mar. 11. 2011Lat.: 45.83438 Long.: 13.77368Code: Bot_493/2011_IMG3916Habitat: grassland, pasture, mixed hardwood in the vicinity; almost flat terrain; open sunny, dry place; calcareous ground; elevation 295 m (970 feet); average precipitations 1.400-1.500 mm/year, average temperature 11-13 deg C, Sub-Mediterranean phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil.Place: About 1 km north of village Mali dol, Komen Karst region, Primorska, Slovenia EC.Comment: Pulsatilla montana is a poisonous but incredible beautiful plant with its deep complementary colored and large, up to 5 cm in diameter, flowers, which are enveloped with silvery hairy garment. It is a South European montane floral element and is absent from most regions of the Alps including Slovenian alpine phytogeographical region. But it grows scattered more southern. In Slovenia this not really rare, but uncommon beauty can be found scattered in country's warmest, southwest part.Pictures shows young, still small plant. During its anthese (time in which a flower fully develops from bud to fruit) it grows constantly and is much taller at the end.Pravilnik o uvrstitvi ogroenih rastlinskih in ivalskih vrst v rdei seznam, Uradni list RS, t. 82/2002 (Regulation of enlisting of endangered plant and animal species onto Red List, Official Gazette of Republic Slovenia, no. 82/2002) (2002).

Adonis annua ssp. cupaniana (L.) Guss., syn.: Adonis autumnalis L., Adonis phoenicea Bercht. & Presl.Autumn Pheasant's-eye, Adonis' Flower, Blooddrops, DE: HerbstadonisrschenSlo.: jesenki zajji makDat.: May 24. 2012Lat.: 45.52694 Long.: 13.89010Code: Bot_621/2012_IMG9395Habitat: edge of a grain field, flat terrain, calcareous ground; open, sunny, dry place; exposed to direct rain, average precipitations ~ 1.100 mm/year, average temperature 10 - 12 deg C, elevation 80 m (260 feet), submediterranean phytogeographical region. Substratum: arable soil.Place: Between villages Brezovica and Kubed, at the bottom of the river Riana valley, below 'Kraki rob' flats, Istria, Slovenia EC.Comment: Adonis annua is a Mediterranean poisonous weed plant of arable land, which has spread outside its 'original' region long time ago (archaeophyte, a plant introduced before Columbus time). It was once a very widespread and common plant. However, since late ninetieth century it underwent a drastically decline everywhere, also in Slovenia. Only a limited number of small populations, mainly restricted to field edges, remained. The same destinies shear also its 'brothers' Adonis flammea and Adonis aestivalis (both are on our Red list) while Adonis microcarpa is considered already extinct. The reasons for that are several. Changes in agricultural techniques used, particularly improved seed cleaning methods, seem to be the most important. The plant has very large seeds, so they are easily and thoroughly removed from cereal grains every year. Increased use of agrochemicals and the density of modern crops and possibly also climate changes may also contribute to gradual disappearing of this plant.Its Latin name is said to remember the Adonis who was killed by a wild boar. Adonis plants supposedly sprang up from the ground where his blood drops fell. Its common name refers to pheasants eyes, which are red.Ref.:(1) A.Martini et all., Mala Flora Slovenije, Tehnina Zaloba Slovenije (2007) (in Slovene), p 125.(2)
