Adonis dahureca fl. pl. An Adonis I bought several years ago from the Danish Iris & Lily club, but I've never been able to find information about this species. The only place I've seen it mentioned is on Jürgen Peters catalogue: http://www.alpinepeters.de I have been told that it is an A. amurensis from Poland. I my garden it is flourish when A. amurensis has faded and it is also more less than A. amurense.
