#Asian flora

• Adonis amurensis — The scientific name of the Amur pheasant's eye, a perennial herbaceous plant in the Ranunculaceae family, native to Eastern Asia (Siberia, China, Japan, and Korea). The plant blooms in early spring, often pushing through the snow with its large, solitary, intense golden-yellow flowers, traditionally used as an ornamental plant and in Eastern medicine due to its cardiotonic compounds.
• Aerides — A genus of tropical epiphytic orchids in the family Orchidaceae, native to South and Southeast Asia (from India to the Philippines and New Guinea). They are structurally characterized by vigorous monopodial growth, thick and long aerial roots, and densely clustered pendulous inflorescences with spectacular, heavily fragrant flowers, typically white, pink, or purple, featuring a characteristic forward-pointing spur.
• Aërides odoratum — The type and highly popular species of tropical epiphytic orchid in the genus Aerides, family Orchidaceae, native to a wide range of South and Southeast Asia. It is structurally characterized by long and robust monopodial stems, strap-like fleshy leaves, and densely packed pendulous inflorescences bearing numerous white or creamy flowers with purple spots at the tips, renowned for their sweet and intense fragrance resembling lemon or jasmine.
• Agapetes — A genus of shrubby, often epiphytic plants belonging to the Ericaceae family, native mainly to the mountainous regions of Southeast Asia and the Himalayas. These structural plants are notable for their pendulous stems, evergreen, leathery leaves, and tubular or urceolate flowers, brightly colored in shades of red, pink, or white, adapted to humid high-altitude microclimates.
• Alsomitra sarcophylla — The scientific Latin designation for a distinct and rare perennial herbaceous liana species within the Alsomitra genus, Cucurbitaceae family, encountered in Asian tropical rainforests. This climbing plant stands out structurally due to its fleshy, succulent, or thickened leaves (sarcophylla), adapted for water retention during periods of reduced moisture, and its specific aerodynamic seed-producing capsules.
• Anaphalis cinnamomea — The official binominal scientific name of a perennial herbaceous plant species in the genus Anaphalis, family Asteraceae, native to the temperate and mountainous regions of Asia (including the Himalayas, China, and Japan). The species is structurally remarkable for the dense hairs on the underside of the leaves and stems that acquire a characteristic cinnamon-brown or yellowish tint at maturity, contrasting with the white or cream involucral bracts of the capitular inflorescences, sometimes used as an ornamental plant or in local traditional medicine.
• Dichotomous anemone — A species of perennial herbaceous plant in the family Ranunculaceae, distributed throughout the temperate regions of Eurasia, from Eastern Europe to Siberia and northern China. It grows mainly in damp meadows, floodplains, and forest edges, standing out due to its bifurcated (dichotomous) branched stem and its solitary or paired white flowers that appear in mid-summer.
• Aquilegia glandulosa — A species of herbaceous perennial plants in the genus Aquilegia, native to the alpine and subalpine zones of Siberia, Mongolia, and China; this structural plant is characterized by fine glandular hairs on its stems and leaves, as well as large, bicolor flowers with intense-blue sepals and white inner petals.
• Aquilegia sibirica — A species of herbaceous perennial plants in the genus Aquilegia, native to the coniferous forests, glades, and alpine meadows of Siberia, Mongolia, and Central Asia; this structural plant stands out for its spectacular bicolor flowers, usually featuring large intense blue-violet sepals and white inner petals, being extremely hardy in severe subarctic climates.
