Ranunculus asiaticus Vortex 'F1 Hot Pink' | 10.5cm Pot
Hot pink, paper-thin petals, gathered compactly to form a beautiful rose
Commonly known as the 'Persian Buttercup', this Ranunculus asiaticus boasts an abundance of paper-thin petals, which together form a flower with a spinning silhouette. As such, this variety has understandably been named 'Vortex'! The hot pink shade of this Persian Buttercup is also perfect for embracing some fun colour, while the surrounding foliage benefits from less yellow leaves and a strong, branching habit.

Our herbaceous plants are lovingly grown by our trusted nursery, based in England. Each flourishing plant will be dispatched directly to your home.
Please note, your potted plant may not display flowers as soon as it arrives. However, the 'flowering period' box (detailed above), indicates when you can expect flowers to form. Many of our herbaceous perennials also die back in winter, so will have little growth in spring, but grow quickly once sunlight hours improve.
Packaging
Sustainability is one of our priorities, and as such, our perennials and alpines are delivered in environmentally friendly packaging. Aside from being recyclable, they will keep them nice and secure on their journey.
Please see our below guidance on your perennial or alpine's care:
Watering: During your perennial or alpine's first growing season, you should provide them with frequent waterings. Try to also avoid wetting the foliage to reduce the risk of disease.
Deadheading: To promote a long flowering period, you should deadhead any flowers that appear spent. Simply rescind each flower at their base, taking care to not cut other parts of the plant.
Dividing: To really flourish, your perennials can be divided every three to four years. They can be divided when they begin to show less flowers, or appear less healthy in the middle. Make sure to only do so when they aren't currently flowering.
Please note: Herbaceous perennials can die back in winter, so don't be alarmed if this happens and instead look forward to spring!
