Adonis
vernalis, also known as pheasant's eye. It's
considered as a common spring flower in some well-preserved (means
conservation areas, where only limited human presence allowed) parts
of the country, but what's not so well known, that it's rather
poisonous due to some cardiostimulant compounds. A strong tea out of
it would be fatal.
Her
relative, the Adonis transsylvanica is, however a very rare plant;
rare enough to be the primary reason to establishing a National
Park on it's conservation. There's only five known habitat exists in
the Carpathian Basin, and as for today, worldwide.
