ranunculuses
Layered petal blooms
Ranunculuses is the plural of ranunculus, a flowering plant in the buttercup family with tightly layered petals that spiral outward like tissue paper.
Popular in wedding bouquets and floral arrangements, they bloom in vivid colors—red, pink, orange, yellow, white.
The ranunculuses in the centerpiece were stunning.
The Latin plural ranunculi also appears.
