Seedlings
Cotyledons have petioles. Leaves egg-shaped in outline, with the broadest end occurring at the apex, and having toothed margins.
Leaves
Leaves consist of both basal and stem leaves (cauline). Basal leaves are on long petioles, spatulate in outline with toothed margins. Stem leaves are dissected into 3-parted linear segments that are approximately 1 1/4 inches in length and 5 mm in width, without petioles, without hairs to sparsely roughly hairy.
Stems
Erect, branching.
Flowers
Yellow in color, 5 sepals 3-5 mm long, and 5 petals 4-6.5 mm long.
Fruit
An achene, 6-8 mm long, 4-5 mm wide, covered with up to 3 mm long spines.
Identifying Characteristics
The distinctive buttercup flowers and spatulate basal leaves with linear stem leaves are all characteristics that help to distinguish corn buttercup from most other similar weeds. Several different buttercup species are common, like Bulbous Buttercup (Ranunculus bulbosus), but this weed has a thickened bulbous base and does not have linear stem leaves like those of corn buttercup.
Corn buttercup is a cornfield annual which grows to about 50cm high and has deeply cut stem leaves and relatively small lemon yellow flowers. The most characteristic feature of this plant are the large, prickly achenes (seeds) quite unlike those of any other buttercup found on the British mainland (Ranunculus muricatus found on the Isles of Scilly are similar but its leaves are not deeply divided). Flowers from early May to late June.

Habitat Information
Corn buttercup was originally introduced into Britain at least as far back as Roman times. It was formerly widespread and locally common but has declined rapidly since the introduction of modern broad-spread herbicides. Corn buttercup is almost entirely restricted to arable land and is found on loamy, sandy, chalky and, most particularly, heavy clay soils.
Growing Information
Best sown in the autumn as seed germinates throughout the autumn and winter.
