Common Name
River Buttercup
Description
The river buttercup from Australia, Ranunculus inundatus, is also sold with the label "Ranunculus papulentus". It is a true eye-catcher with its unique palmate fresh green leaves and its creeping growth habit. To live up to its full potential, this Ranunculus needs lots of light to prevent it from forming too long leaf stalks. Ranunculus inundatus can also be cultivated as bog plant in shallow water or wet soil. Under good conditions it will form its small yellow flowers then.
