Description
THIS IS NOT A ROSE. THIS IS NOT A ROSE. THIS IS NOT A ROSE.
Captured at a local nature center back around 2005 or 2006.
Nowhere in my research did I find the ranunculus flower listed as a rose or a member of the rose genera.
Ranunculus /ræˈnʌŋkjʊləs is a genus of about 500 species of flowering plants in the family Ranunculaceae. Members of the genus include the buttercups, spearworts and water crowfoots. The petals are often highly lustrous, especially in yellow species, owing to a special coloration mechanism: the petal's upper surface is very smooth causing a mirror-like reflection.
