Plant Care & Growing Tips

To successfully grow ranunculus, understanding their specific needs is crucial. These corms thrive in locations with full sun to partial sun, ideally receiving at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. In hotter climates, some afternoon shade can protect the delicate blooms from scorching. When planting, ensure the ‘claws’ of the corm face downwards. It’s often recommended to pre-soak the corms in lukewarm water for 3-4 hours before planting to rehydrate them and encourage quicker sprouting, though some gardeners skip this step.

Pink ranunculus corms prefer well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. A slightly acidic to neutral soil pH (6.0-7.0) is ideal. Avoid heavy, waterlogged soils, as this can lead to corm rot. Amend clay soils with compost or sand to improve drainage. Water thoroughly after planting, and then maintain consistent moisture, especially during dry periods and as the plants begin to bud and bloom. However, be careful not to overwater, as ranunculus are susceptible to fungal diseases in overly wet conditions. Fertilize with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks once growth appears, following product instructions.

Ranunculus are typically grown as annuals in most regions, but in USDA zones 8-10, they can be treated as perennials. Plant in early spring in cooler climates for summer blooms, or in fall in warmer climates for spring blooms. Protect young plants from hard frosts. Common problems include powdery mildew or aphids; ensure good air circulation and inspect plants regularly. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms and maintain plant vigor. With these tips, you’ll be able to successfully grow ranunculus and enjoy their exquisite beauty.
