You may recognize traditional ranunculus by its tight, layered, rose-like bloom. Butterfly Ranunculus looks entirely different. Its flowers are more open, its stems branch naturally, and one stem may carry several blooms and buds. Those qualities make it beautiful, but they also leave buyers wondering how to use it, how much to order, and whether it should be treated as a focal flower or supporting texture. 

To address these questions and to celebrate the versatility of this stunning flower, Whole Blossoms is introducing new Butterfly Ranunculus varieties through an exclusive relationship with a trusted farm. This guide will provide you with everything you need to know about Butterfly Ranunculus, including tips for identification, comparison with traditional ranunculus, available colors, care instructions, vase life, recommended quantities to order, and how to incorporate it into wedding arrangements. 

While nature ensures that no two blooms are exactly the same, adding to their charm, you can expect some natural variation in bloom count, stem form, maturity, and color.
