Ranunculus parviflorus aka Smallflower Buttercup

Smallflower Buttercup should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

When growing Smallflower Buttercup, it is important to pay attention to the soil type you are using. This plant is very sensitive to dry soil and needs a potting soil that retains moisture. A good soil should still be well-draining and contain lots of organic matter. Coco coir or sphagnum moss are great options to provide the Smallflower Buttercup with the nutrients and moisture it needs. The added organic matter will also help the soil retain water and prevent the Smallflower Buttercup from drying out too quickly. Before planting, make sure to mix compost or manure into the soil for extra nutrients. Also, make sure to water the Smallflower Buttercup regularly, making sure to keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy. With the correct soil and watering regimen, the Smallflower Buttercup will thrive and bring lots of beauty to your home.

Smallflower Buttercup thrives in bright and direct sunlight. To ensure your plant receives enough light to survive, place it less than one foot from a window. The current weather in your area may affect the placement in your home. For example, if you live in a region that has longer and more intense periods of sunlight, then you may want to place the plant farther away from the window to avoid direct sunlight and reduce the risk of sunburn. Alternatively, if you live in a region with relatively milder temperatures and less intense sunlight, then you may be able to place the plant closer to the window for increased exposure. Ultimately, the current weather in your area should be taken into consideration when determining the best placement for your Smallflower Buttercup.

Ploi's records do not contain confirmed information on the toxicity of this particular plant. In the event of accidental ingestion of plant material with questionable toxicity by you, a family member, or a pet, it is always a good idea to consult a healthcare professional.

The Smallflower Buttercup should be repotted either when it doubles in size or annually, whichever comes first. Providing new potting soil with all the vital nutrients annually is enough to support the growth of the plant, and thus, there is no need for fertilizer. Remember that plants derive their energy from the sun, not fertilizer.
