I plan on putting these in a few gardens. So Beautiful. Variety: Pee Gee, turns pink in the fall and blooms all thru August in New York.
Welcome all like minded souls...creative women who are inspired by wild flowers and bird's nests,forsythia and the first signs of spring, the smell of the earth rediscovered under the last bits of winter snow, lilacs, antique flea markets and everything vintage, beautiful fabrics and coffee on rainy warm Saturday mornings..

Ranunculus are better known to most people as Buttercups. Their beautiful
double flowers look almost like miniature peonies, but their color range is much wider includingred, white, yellow, pink, gold, and orange. The Persian reference in the common name is from the
legend that a shy, handsome Persian prince died of longing because he was unable to declare his
love for a nymph. After his death he was changed into the flower we know today. Persian
buttercups become available as blooming pot plants in late winter and are a wonderful spirit-lifter
until plants begin to bloom outside.
