Botanical Name: Ranunculus Asiaticus
Family: Ranunculaceae
One Ranunculi corm can produce more than 20 flowers.
To keep blooms coming for a longer period, regularly cut off any dead and dying blooms.
These little bulbs will keep your garden and house in flowers for many weeks.
Watering: Water well after planting; soak weekly until shoots appear, then only to supplement rainfall. Prefer a well-drained soil.
Pest & Disease: bait snails when buds appear. Mildew can be a problem in autumn.
Lifting and Storage: best treated as annual or bi-annuals and new bulbs replanted every 1 to 2 years.
Tip: plant with claws facing downwards. To kick-start the growing process soak the bulbs in a bowl of water for around an hour before planting. To ensure success with outdoor planting, start in trays of seed raising mix. Keep moist in a cool position. Transplant 3-4 weeks after sprouting.
