Creeping buttercup
Ranunculus repens
Creeping buttercup thrives in moist, partially shaded areas and spreads rapidly through runners. It produces bright yellow flowers in spring and summer, attracting bees and other pollinators. While extremely hardy and low-maintenance, it can become aggressive in ideal conditions and may need containment in formal gardens.
