Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ranunculus aconitifolius 'Flore Pleno' produces bold clumps of serrated leaves that give rise to masses of perfect, white, double buttons with pale yellow centres. This is one fancy buttercup! A clumping plant and sterile so very well-behaved. Plant in evenly moist soils in sun to part shade.

The much sought-after double form of this butter cup relative. Back in Switzerland it was quite rare and for me it wouldn't multiply fast (enough). Here in Oregon I'm delighted to report that it's a fairly good grower; we were able to pot up large divisions. They prefer a moist soil and tolerate wet as well, especially in spring.

When this blooms we sound like that shampoo commercial 'Yes! Yes! Oh Yes!" Perfect quarter-sized mega-double white flowers like a steroidal double Anemonella, this has attained Enlightenment in the realm of Buttercups. Non-running tidy clumper & a sterile non-seeder. Easy.
