Notes
'Barbaroux' Persian buttercup (Ranunculus asiaticus 'Barbaroux') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. The double flowers are orange-scarlet and open from early to late spring. Bees visit the blooms, and the stems work well in a vase.
