Notes

'Marshmallow' Persian buttercup (Ranunculus asiaticus 'Marshmallow') is a bulb for containers, cut flowers, and borders. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun. Pink flowers open from early to late spring on strong stems. In zones that get cold winters, you can lift the tubers or store the pots for the winter. Avoid spots with winter wet.

Pairs well with Labyrinth dahlia, False shamrock, and Lemongrass.
