Persian Buttercup (Ranunculus asiaticus): Rose-Like Spring Blooms

Persian Buttercup (Ranunculus asiaticus), also called Turban Buttercup or Persian Crowfoot, produces lush, multi-petaled, rose-like flowers in a dazzling array of colors — red, pink, orange, yellow, white, and bicolors. Grown from claw-like tubers, it blooms profusely in spring. A favorite for cutting gardens and containers, it prefers cool, moist conditions and goes dormant in summer heat.
