Ranunculus have a rose shaped flower and are a genus of the Ranunculaceae family, which includes flowers like buttercups, spearworts and water crowfoot. All species of ranunculus are poisonous to cattle, horses and other livestock. The name for ranunculus is Latin for 'little frog', ('rana' - meaning frog). Many wild species are found near water and this is probably the reason.
