This temperate northern hemisphere plant begins to flower now and continues for at least another month .It is a shade and water loving perennial which has handsome kidney shaped leaves and pure butter yellow flowers to 5 cm across. I grow it in pots usually with a tray of water underneath and then move it to deep shade during the hot months. It can be grown beside a pond in damp heavy soil as well. These "buttercup" type flowers have a real glow to them and are a delight to the eye.
2017 update I no longer have a plant of it in the garden as it could not cope with the extreme heat of summer.
