Ranunculus Planting Instructions 

Plant in the fall, in well-drained soil, in full sun. Ranunculus are frost tolerant. Dig 2 1/2” deep holes and 4” to 6“ apart. Plant TGIF – Toes Go In First. Cover with soil, water well - thoroughly soaking the soil when planted, then only sparingly when necessary. Tubers can be left in ground for next year. Ranunculus are great cut flowers and cutting causes more flowers to bloom. When stems and leaves turn yellow and dry out, cut plants back. Don’t water when dormant.
