Plant Care & Growing Tips

Ensuring your Ranunculus mixed bulbs thrive requires attention to specific care guidelines, particularly regarding planting, watering, and sunlight. For optimal growth, begin by soaking the bulbs for 3 hours before planting. Plant them about 2 inches deep in a sandy loam soil that retains moisture but is not waterlogged. Initially, place the planted bulbs in a warm place, covered with saran wrap, for about 6 days or until sprouts emerge. During this phase, direct sunlight is not needed. Once growth begins, gradually introduce them to light and add a little more soil around them. After another two weeks in a sunny location, they can be transplanted to their final garden spot.

Ranunculus flower bulbs prefer full sun exposure to produce their most abundant and vibrant blooms. Watering should be light until top growth appears, then moderate during active growth to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. It’s best to water at ground level to prevent fungal diseases and discoloration of the delicate flowers. In the spring, as signs of growth emerge, fertilize with a well-balanced fertilizer. Maintaining a layer of mulch helps keep the soil cool and moist, but ensure the mulch is kept away from the stems to prevent rot. These jumbo Ranunculus bulbs are hardy in USDA Zones 8-10, making them suitable for many climates as perennials.
