Ravishing Ranunculus


Firstly these flowers must be THE most beautiful of all flowers, they are more relaxed than roses, their colours are softer, and above all their latin name translates as 'little frog'. How utterly wonderful !
However....all renunculus are poisonous when eaten fresh by cattle, horses and other livestock, but their acrid taste and the blistering of the mouth caused by their poison means they are usually left uneaten, always a happy ending to an otherwise frightful story ! Bit of a fact of the day ! Come and see Renunculus @ Secretts Craft & Design Festival 17th-19th June !
