Ranunculus White Aviv
Ranunculus asiaticus
Dozens of white ruffley petals unfurl slowly on tall upright stems. Plants produce 5-10 stems with 3-5” diameter blooms and prefer cooler temperatures blooming spring through early-summer. Ranunculus corms are a root structure which will produce stems and roots, very similar to planting a bulb.
Package Contains: 20 corms
Plant Height: 12-24”
Light Requirements: full sun: zones 3-8, partial afternoon shade: zones 9-10
Soil Preference: rich, loose, well draining soil, pH 5.6-7.5
USDA Zones: 3-6 (annual), 7-10 (perennial)
How to Grow
Planting Depth: 2-4”
Plant Spacing: 6-8”
Spring Planting: Pre-sprout corms indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date in spring. Transplant pre-sprouted corms after temperatures are above 25F. Bury soaked corms 3-4 weeks before your last spring frost date.
Fall Planting: Corms can be planted in fall without winter protection in zones 7-10, and with winter protection in zones 5-6.
Growing Tips: Store corms in a dry location at 40-65F until you are ready to plant them. Soak corms for 2-3 hours in aerated water (water left running) right before planting, corms should double in size. Bury the corm pointed downwards. Water carefully with 1-2” of water a week, allowing the soil to dry between watering’s, and increasing watering as temperatures warm.
Harvest: Harvest single stems as low as possible just when petals start to unfurl and the bud feels like a marshmallow for a vase life of 5-8 days with flower food.
