Ranunculus ficaria ‘Brazen Hussy’
Celandine Buttercup |
USDA Zone: 5-9 |
Plant number: 1.451.200
This is a unique form of the Lesser Celandine, a buttercup native to Europe. Plants bloom in early to late spring, forming a gorgeous mound of purple-black foliage, contrasting beautifully with the small yellow buttercup flowers. Clumps spread steadily to form a good-sized patch in time. Since this goes completely dormant in summer, plan on combining with something that will fill in the gap, such as a Hosta. Tolerates summer heat and humidity. Clumps may be easily divided in the late summer or fall when they are dormant. This plant may become INVASIVE, be cautious if you consider growing it.
