🪴 How to Plant
- Pre-Soak: Soak corms in water for 3 hours before planting.
- Pre-Sprout (Optional but Recommended): Place soaked corms in a shallow tray filled with lightly moist, sandy loam soil. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and keep in a warm location with no direct sunlight for 5–7 days, or until sprouts appear.
- Initial Growth: Once sprouted, lightly cover corms with additional soil and introduce indirect light.
- Transplanting: After approximately two weeks of sun exposure and continued growth, transplant outdoors.
💡 Tip: Ranunculus thrive in cool weather — plant in early spring or fall depending on your region.
🌿 Care & Maintenance
- Watering: Water lightly until top growth emerges, then moderately during active growth. Always water at ground level to minimize fungal issues and flower discoloration.
- Fertilizer: Apply a well-balanced fertilizer in spring when growth first appears.
- Mulch: Maintain a light layer of mulch to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature, keeping mulch away from stems to prevent rot.
- Cut Flowers: Ideal for bouquets — straight stems, long vase life, and abundant blooms make ranunculus a florist favorite.
