Good plant #66 - Ranunculus Ficaria


This a very floriferous shade-loving ground cover plant. Whilst it is best suited to moist conditions it will grow anywhere other than the sunniest and driest site.

I plant this around the feet of ferns, herbaceous perennials and deciduous plants because to brighten up the planting area in the early spring season.

This plant will propagate itself but can be divided as soon as the leaves appear in very early spring.
