Ranunculus.....

Just a few of these lovely Ranunculus waiting for warmer soil to be planted in my garden...I am sure they will be blooming all summer long.❤








THE MEANING & SYMBOLISM OF RANUNCULUS
Native to Asia and celebrated for its medicinal properties as well as its bright beauty, the small camellia-like ranunculus ranges from white to pink, red to yellow to orange. Also known as Buttercup and Coyote’s Eyes, legend has it that the mythological Coyote was tossing his eyes up in the air and catching them when Eagle snatched them. Unable to see, Coyote created eyes from the buttercup.

In the language of flowers, a bouquet of ranunculus says, “I am dazzled by your charms.”
