• Planting Depth: 2 inches deep

Tip: Ranunculus thrive in cool weather — plant in early spring or fall depending on your region.

🌿 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.
