Ethesia Prasina

Ethesia buttercup, scientifically known as Ethesia prasina, is a strikingly beautiful plant native to the wetlands of southern Africa. With its bright yellow flowers and dark green foliage, it stands out as a unique member of the Ranunculaceae family. This species thrives in moist, shady environments, making it a popular choice for gardeners seeking to add visual interest to their landscapes. Its delicate appearance belies its resilience, as it can tolerate a range of soil conditions when properly cared for. Despite its beauty, Ethesia prasina remains relatively obscure, often overlooked in favor of more common garden plants.
