This Ranunculus Mix includes corms of a variety of colors for orange, white, red, pink, purple, and yellow blooms
Ranunculus flowers look almost too perfect to be real. Buttercup blossoms display layer upon layer of silky petals in bright colors. These exquisite, rose-like flowers are a staple in any flower shop or wedding bouquet. Even better, the blooms are great for cut flowers, with a vase life of up to two weeks.
Native to Asia and northeast Africa, ranunculus is a very versatile plant that can be grown in beds and borders as well as in planters or pots on terraces and balconies.
Once you've passed this part, it's simple to cultivate and care for ranunculus as they decorate your garden in spring to early summer. Leave the bulbs in place from one year to the next to enjoy them for a long time.
