Ranunculus Collection

Simple and stylish, ranunculus produce exquisitely formed flowers atop upright stems, and create an impressive seasonal show in pots or borders. Normally planted in autumn or spring for late spring or early summer flowers, they can also be planted as late as June to create a much-needed splash of colour in late summer when many other plants are finishing. Plant more than you need so there will be plenty of blooms to spare for the house.

Ranunculus are well known for their ability to last up to 2 weeks in water after being cut for the vase and they have become firm favourites with florists. These varieties have been bred for the cut flower industry and would normally only be available to commercial growers. When cutting for the vase it is best to strip off the lower leaves before placing into water or the leaves will go slimy and the flowers will not last as long.
