A flower growing in evergreen shrubs native to Asia, especially in Japan, China, and Korea.
In art, these flowers are usually red, but sometimes white or pink. They have a bright yellow center that sticks up and often only have a single layer of petals. They grow on a bush, though they are more often seen as cut flowers.
The actual flower has more differences between varieties, particularly in the number of petals, but the "Camellia Japonica" variety is the one most commonly seen in anime-centric art.
