Ranunculus aconitifolius 'Flore Pleno'
Fair Maids of France

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Ranunculus aconitifolius 'Flore Pleno', often known as the double-flowered form of fair maids of France, is cherished for its delicate, pure white, double blooms that resemble small, clustered roses. These blossoms emerge in late spring to early summer, creating a soft, cloud-like effect in the garden that pairs beautifully with other early-season perennials. The flowers are densely packed with petals, adding a refined, almost lace-like appearance against the plant's lush green foliage.

Native to the cool, mountainous regions of Europe, this ranunculus cultivar has been appreciated in European gardens for its elegance and adaptability to cooler climates. 'Flore Pleno' is especially suited for naturalistic or cottage-style plantings, where its soft, romantic blooms can be allowed to naturalize or complement other shade-loving plants. This cultivar is both ornamental and easy to maintain, making it a favorite for gardeners seeking timeless, understated beauty in shaded or woodland settings.
