I havn't heard anyone pronounce this correctly.  Albany just said "raniculas," lol, even Valerie doesn't pronounce it correctly, she calls them ranuculus, pretty funny, but they should learn since they are presenting products made of them and other flowers.

...that is funny...

I love ranunculus, so pretty, great colors.  They remind me of some types of roses who's petals are tightly compacted.  We never seem to have any in our garden though.

This year, must plant some.

@PINKdogWOOD  I hve several large pots with deep maroon, but in my previous home, I planted tons of all colors as I didn't have to worry about gophers there.

I love them too.  I pronounce Ran-unc-u-lus.  I need to look that up, maybe.

@lucymo  I think it's the same, the spelling is correct, not an "nic" or "nuc, lol.

Wow....that is a serious complaint. Call CS tout suite.

Then there's the question of the plural--is it ranunculi?  LOL

@mousiegirl  Whatever, they are beautiful, sometimes called Turban flower, I believe.   What fun we have in the garden, I can't wait.  It's pretty warm here in southern Mo this week.  We had thunderstorms this morning, sun is out now.  I'll be cleaning pots soon and lugging bags of Miracle Gro soil.  :-)

Good question.  I don't know the answer but I'll ask Google and see if 'he' knows.  I'll be back.  :-)

ETA  Plural of Ranunculus  is:

 ra·nun·cu·lus·es or ra·nun·cu·li

Darn, we're good.  lol
