Ranunculus acris (Ranunculaceae) 1:18

Ranunculus acris (Meadow Buttercup) is an uncommon weed that grows in agricultural land in the south. It is a large, erect herb (with flowering stems up to 1 m tall, with several golden-yellow flowers a couple of cm across). The lower leaves are large (up to 15cm across) and almost circular in outline, but divided into 3-7 lobes, which in turn are divided into three toothed lobes.
