    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Water Buttercup. About 3 feet tall, thin leaves and large buttercup flowers. Caution is advised with this one because it will want to take over any pond in which it is planted. Solution - give it it's own small pond where you can thoroughly enjoy this one that blooms in early summer and then may rebloom in late summer.
