Description

Ranunculus aquatilis, commonly known as water crowfoot, is a beautiful Oxygenator plant that is perfect for creating an idyllic oasis. This aquatic plant features delicate fronds that float beneath the surface of the water, topped with broader leaves that float on the surface. From May to August, white buttercup-like flowers appear, adding a touch of elegance to your garden. Ranunculus aquatilis thrives in full sun to part shade and is best planted in containers of aquatic compost in 15-60cm of water. Sold in bunches, this Oxygenator is sure to add beauty and serenity to any space.

Repotting or planting

We suggest planting 2-3 bunches per 1m². They benefit from the base of the plant being pushed into soil or gravel.

Care instructions

Bunches – Can be dropped in pond as a weighted bunch but it benefits from being planted in soil.
Container grown – In fast flowing water ensure it is anchored well, the leaves may remain under the surface due to the flow. In still or slower flowing water the leaves will come above the surface where it will flower.
