Plumose Anemone

Giant Plumose and Short Plumose Anemone

British Columbia has two varieties of Plumose Anemone. The striking Giant Plumose, Metridium farcimen, can grow up to one meter tall and is a spectacular sight under water when it forms isolated clumps, or large masses on a wall. The smaller Short Plumose, Metridium senile, often carpets shallow rock ledges and dock pilings. These anemone come in two main colour forms, white and orange.
