Buttercup – Western

Western Buttercup is native between Alaska, western Washington, Oregon and California.  Often, it can be found in woodland clearings, on grassy slopes, and in moist meadows, at elevations ranging from sea level to subalpine.  Surprisingly adaptable, with moderate water supply it will retain its evergreen foliage color and prove itself to be a long blooming flower.  Once established, it will typically reseed itself.  The Western Buttercup is also commonly referred to as the Field Buttercup.  In the Northwest, fall plant this flower outside for the best results.  Flowers native to the Northwest require cold weather to get them started.  They take longer to grow out of the ground, and some may take up to three years to fully establish themselves.
