Not sure what plant you're talking about... this time of year, Ranunculus asiaticus is often sold for early season bloom. Unless you live in in a warmer climate (zone 8-10) they're considered annuals & can be removed once they no longer look good.

im in zone 7 and some reneclus are actually annual bulb or perrenials

Are you referring to ranunculus? If so, which ranunculus do you have? I've not heard of renclus. Do you know the exact name of the plant you have?

RE: advice please

Do they look like the ranunculus in the below link? If so, they are probably ranunculus asiaticus, and, therefore, not perennial for you (or for me.)

Here is a link that might be useful: ranunculus asiaticus

RE: ranunculus

yes they do but at the home depot some few said perennial

RE: advice please

Home Depot isn't necessarily a good source of information about plants, either the tags or the staff IME. If you plan to buy there, be sure to take a resource (a smart phone will let you look up plants online) or write a list of what's available, and go home to research before you return to buy.
