Search for Ranunculaceae - Buttercup family.

Maybe some Ranunculus ficaria with an interesting silver pattern on leaves. But for now, this is just an idea. Need to study more about.

I agree with Justin on Ranunculus, they sure are pretty, and the flowers so big and nice. Smiling

thanks for pointing me in the right direction

I think they may be lesser celandine , Ranunculus ficaria

I do see the pattern and do not find that mentioned in anything I have read either.
