Description

Vibrant Petal-Packed Bloom (Outdoor Plant)

Scientific Name: Ranunculus asiaticus
Common Names / Known As: Persian Buttercup, Ranunculus, Garden Buttercup

Overview: The Persian Buttercup is a dazzling houseplant or garden star with lush, rose-like blooms in vibrant shades of pink, red, yellow, orange, and white, native to the Mediterranean and Southwest Asia. Its delicate, multi-layered petals and fern-like foliage make it a favorite for cut flower arrangements and indoor displays.

Quirky Fact / Common Use: Known as the “Rose of Spring,” its reflective yellow petals act like tiny mirrors to attract pollinators, and in Persian folklore, it’s tied to tales of a lovestruck prince, symbolizing charm and romance.

Ideal For:

  • Apartments or homes with bright light, perfect for containers or small garden beds.

  • Flower enthusiasts or as a romantic, colorful gift for special occasions.

  • Sprucing up patios, balconies, or indoor spaces with vivid, long-lasting blooms.

Available in: 15cm Pots

(Received plants may differ slightly from images displayed. Unless otherwise specified, all Plants come in black nursery pots)

Care Tips

Light: Full sun or bright indirect light; place near a south-facing window or 1-2 meters from a bright window to ensure vibrant blooms.

Watering: Water when the top 2-5 cm of soil is dry, typically every 7-10 days, ensuring well-draining soil to prevent corm rot.

Temperature: Thrives in 10-21°C; protect from frost below -4°C or heat above 27°C to avoid dormancy.

Pet Friendly? ❌ Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested, causing mouth irritation or digestive upset.

Care: Soak corms for 3-4 hours before planting with claws down; deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers and maintain air circulation to prevent mildew.

What would you like to see:

To ensure fresh and healthy plants we follow a strict weekly shipping schedule: 

Mondays: We prepare plants for shipping! This means wrapping the soil, adding plant sleeves, and one last pre-travel watering. 
Tuesdays: We wake up bright and early to get all plants carefully packaged for shipping in the morning, in the afternoon we hand over plants with the longest travel ahead of them to our courier partners (this means Eastern, Western and Northern Cape)
Wednesdays: If there are any plants that did not fit in the Tuesday truck, they travel in the second batch on a Wednesday. 
Thursdays and Fridays: No plants are shipped, we carefully monitor all the travelling plant babies to ensure they arrive safely at their new homes ! 

Why do we do this? 

Our shipping schedule works this way to ensure that your plants are less likely to spend a weekend in the courier depot ! Our shipping schedule is designed this way to ensure that your plants are fresh and healthy, for this same reason we do not like keeping stock for extended periods of time which means that stock received on Thursdays and Fridays will only be shipped the following week.
