Build Me Up Buttercup
Snapshots of the cutest little storytellers you’ll ever see.
As the title implies, these flowers are called Buttercups (Science exclusively calls them: Ranunculaceae).
They are also in the title of an old song I’ve heard throughout my childhood titled “Build Me Up” by The Foundations.
Take a listen to it: here.
There are different types of Ranunculaceae, but they are all included as being part of the Buttercup Family for the following three characteristics:
- showy/bright/flamboyant
- five or more petals
- numerous pistils and stamens
These flowers are said to symbolize:
- youth
- joy
- happiness, and
- good health
Spiritually, they symbolize:
- abundance
- prosperity, and
- success
Buttercups are also closely related to (or synonymous with) children.
These flowers also have a story to tell.
