How should I move buttercups?

Question

What is the life cycle of the buttercup? Are they like zinnas when you look for seed? Maybe I should dig up the whole plant to move it. They have just finished blooming. Is it a good time?

Answer 1

Not sure which plant you mean, as there are several known by the name buttercup, so I can't say much about seeds. I can give you some information on transplanting wildflowers: https://www.doityourself.com/stry/transplanting-wildflowers-from-the-wild-into-your-garden
