RE: Ranunculus ficaria 'Brazen Hussy'

Don,
	Yes Brazen Hussy does retain its deep purple/black leaf color the entire
season here in zone 8. You may notice a difference in your hotter, more
humid climate.   I have been growing it 3or 4 years.  It is planted with
Lysimachia ' Gold Coin' and I love the way the 2 look together.  My Hussy
self sows into the Creeping Jenny quite nicely plus a few random plants
scattered in the same flower bed.  I dig my extras for the nursery as the
seedlings look just like the parent.  Otherwise, you will have a few to give
away every spring.

I have question for those growing Ranunculus ficaria 'Brazen Hussy'.
Do the leaves retain their deep color for the entire season.  How
rampant a spreader is it?  I love my little second year plant but...
