The Flowers of Evil is… an experience. Some will tell you its a bad one because of its choice to use rotoscoping animation, but I actually thought it was a great choice for this particular series. The art was realistic, but unsettling, and unsettling is something that works perfectly with the story they are telling.
That said, since the rotoscoping and everyone spitting bile at it when the anime came out got the next season of The Flowers of Evil anime canceled before the first season even ended, you now can only continue the story in the manga.
Furthermore, the story only gets weirder.

What to Expect From The Flowers of Evil Manga?
The Flowers of Evil anime story is literally just a drop in the bucket of the spiral of the Flowers of Evil, but it does a fairly good job adapting what little of the story it does. You don’t need to read it from the beginning, but do be aware it may have introduced characters that play a role in the story later.
Is The Flowers of Evil Manga Over?
The Flowers of Evil manga is complete. It ended in 2014 with Chapter 58.
Will There Be A Flowers of Evil Season 2?
The Flowers of Evil anime is as divisive as it is interesting. In fact, it was to receive a Season 2 after the first season, but it was so reviled while airing that they canceled it before the first season even ended, thus the fun tease montage at the end.
