Renoncules are a flower only recently in my consciousness and they are quickly becoming my favourite

Not to be snarky (at all!) but read this and thought, "I could have sworn it was spelled ranunculus." Have I had it wrong all these years? Am I thinking of a different flower? Anyway, I googled it and both spellings are correct. Renoncules seems to be the French spelling! Mystery solved. 😉

Allison, I was thinking the same thing!! We used Ranunculus all over our wedding, they are my very favorite! Good to know there are two ways to spell their name 🙂

Ugh, that spelling is accidentally pretentious. I swear, it's the first spelling that came up when I searched for it online.

I had a spelling trip-up, too. Glad you all clarified it for me
And those are seriously lovely blooms.
