Adonis species are generally small woodland perennials with yellow or white flowers and many feature finely dissected, fern-like foliage. Japanese gardeners adore adonis and have bred cultivars of orange flowers, too.

Adonis has been cultivated for hundreds of years in Asia. One Adonis flower in particular, Adonis amurensis, is popular as a potted plant that blooms in February during the Japanese New Year period.
