Hey buttercup!

Anyone calls you buttercup, they are insulting you. My manuscript, A Scattering of Shadows, has the main character hiding in a buttercup field. Buttercups grow in cool, moist conditions. More to the point, they are very toxic to eat, and being around the flowers will cause eye and skin irritation. Yes, my main character quickly left the field—even cattle refuse to eat them.
