White Ranunculus Stem, Faux Persian Buttercup

Few flowers carry the soft, paper-layered charm of the ranunculus, and our white faux version captures it petal by petal. Each stem holds one fully open ivory bloom and one emerging bud, set against dusty sage foliage for a fresh-picked look that never wilts. Known also as the Persian buttercup, turban buttercup, or by its botanical name Ranunculus asiaticus, it has long been a favourite among stylists for its ruffled, tightly layered petals. Explore the full faux flowers collection to build an arrangement that lasts year round. Why white works so well White slips easily into almost any palette, which is exactly why this stem suits coastal, Scandi, and Japandi schemes so naturally. The soft ivory tone, warmed by a cream and green centre, reads gentle rather than stark. Group three to five stems in a clear vessel for an abundant, just-gathered feel, or let a single stem stand alone for something more pared back. It sits beautifully alongside our other Artificial Flora stems and looks especially elegant in a sculptural piece like the Harmie Vase. A lasting, thoughtful gift Because it never fades, a faux ranunculus makes a gentle, enduring present for a new home, a birthday, Mother's Day, or a quiet thank you. Pair a few stems with a candle or a journal for a considered gift, or arrange them into a finished vessel from our vases collection for something ready to give. For a fuller display, it layers beautifully with our Vintage Peony Bouquet in cream. Frequently asked questions Are these real or artificial flowers? They are artificial. A faux ranunculus gives you the look of fresh blooms with no water, no upkeep, and no dropped petals. What colour is the bloom? Soft ivory white with a subtle cream and green centre, so it reads warm rather than stark. How many blooms are on each stem? Each stem carries one open bloom and one emerging bud, along with realistic sage foliage. How do I keep it looking its best? Dust gently with a soft brush or a hairdryer on its coolest setting, and keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight to protect the colour over time. Can the stem be shaped? Yes. The wired stem can be gently bent and trimmed to suit your vase and arrangement.

Vary the stem heights slightly so the blooms sit at different levels rather than in a flat line. For a quieter look, a single stem in a slim bud vase is enough to lift a bedside table, bathroom shelf, or entry console. Mix the white ranunculus with a little greenery or a textured branch for contrast, and let the wired stems curve gently so the arrangement feels relaxed rather than stiff.
