Adonis: rare and protected

Blood-red light, the red petals of the rare Adonis. Of them surrounded two flowers in orange and yellow. In restrained old red several flowers against a background. In between loosen small white flowers on the large flowers. Bright pink blooming carnation round out the exquisite bouquet.

In the bulbous glass vase - before the emerald green background - the bright flowers seem to reflect.
