Planting Instructions:

Plant Ranunculus in the fall for zones 8-11 for spring blooms. In zones 4-7, store the hardened corms in a cool, dark place and plant in early spring for mid-summer blooms.

1. Soak corms in room temperature water for 3-4 hours; avoid oversoaking.

2. Choose an area with full sun for planting.

3. Add compost and a balanced fertilizer to your soil.

4. Plant corms 9” apart, 2-3” deep, with tentacles facing down in the soil.

5. Water after planting and continue weekly watering to ensure the corms do not dry out for the remainder of the growing season.
