Ranunculus Collection (25 bulbs)

Planting & Care Instructions

Ranunculus (Persian buttercups) produce unique ruffled blooms ideal for garden borders, pots and cut flower arrangements. Easy to grow, these tubers deliver stunning, layered flowers when provided with the right location and planting depth.

• Planting time: Plant the tubers in spring, from March to May (after frosts have passed). Flowering time generally occurs from May to July.
• Position & soil: Choose a full sun position or light partial shade. Plant in loose, rich and well-drained soil. Avoid areas where water tends to collect.
• Planting depth & spacing: Soak tubers in tepid water for a few hours before planting, then place them with the "claws" facing downwards. For standard ranunculus tubers, size 5/6 cm, plant approximately 5–8 cm deep and 10–15 cm apart.
• Watering: Water well after planting and keep the soil slightly moist during growth. Avoid waterlogged soil to protect the tubers.
• Growing in containers: Use pots or balcony boxes with drainage holes and a rich, well-drained potting mix.
• After flowering: Remove faded flowers, but allow the foliage to remain until it naturally turns yellow and dies back so the tuber can store energy for the next season.
• Winter care: In regions with severe winters, lift tubers before heavy frost and store them in a cool, dry place for the next season.
