"Only 5 of the ranunculus have surfaced—shipped very late, NOT in time gor cool days’ blooming. Maybe they were last year’s stock. Most fisappointing for price. You should replace at least one bag. 😞"
"All the crowns made it and are growing into nice plants! Can’t wait them to bloom!"
"I got so many compliments for this flowers! Love them and will buy more again for sure!"
"I planted these in my garden as a border plant. The foliage looked healthy and the flowers bloomed with vivid colors. Not all of the bulbs sprouted, though all looked healthy, and I followed all instructions. This is my first time planting ranunculus. In future, I would be prepared to have something else to plant in their place, because they appear to be a late spring/early summer plant. Now I have alyssum in their place, because they did not appear to last long--which may be what their natural bent is."
"I planted ranunculus somewhat late last spring in our zone 7 high desert area in ok-not-great soil without amendments. Gave a light straw mulch just to shade the new shoots a tiny bit from our scorching sun (we are at about 5000 ft elevation and the atmosphere is thin enough here to make the humidity very low and the sunlight very intense and drying). It was a very hot, long, dry summer. I watered daily, but the air was like a sponge sucking the moisture. All of the plants struggled mightily. The ranunculus never bloomed and then the leaves dried and crumbled. I thought they were all dead. :( Since I thought that they were dead, I didn't bother to mulch, feed, water, etc. But then this spring, after a wet and mild winter, the leaves returned! :) I've been watering daily since seeing those leaves. Finally, I saw a large, noticeable bud!!!! I looked more carefully and several of the plants were forming smaller buds! It took a full 9 days after noticing the first bud to finally get the first beautiful, red ranunculus flower. It was just a bud for a long time. So I guess my bottom line is that at least here in the southwest, ranunculus should be considered a somewhat risky experiment; a, "why not, I'll try it and see what happens. " It maybe shouldn't be put in a spot where reliable performance is a requirement. In other words, perhaps it is best to interplant with other types of flowers or to put it somewhere where it won't be the only thing blooming to look at. This special flower seems to have a mind of it own. I hope that we continue to have zone 8 type winters instead of zone 7 type winters so that I might be able to continue to enjoy these for future springs!"
Plant the 'Tecolote' Ranunculus Mix for a colorful collection of lush, layered blooms. Silky flowers unfurl in late spring to early summer, held above mounding, fern-like foliage on strong stems. When harvested in the bud stage, the 4-inch-wide blooms last for up to two weeks in a vase. Ranunculus are cool season bloomers that can be planted in spring or fall. In spring, Ranunculus can be planted in any zone for late spring to summer blooms. In fall, Ranunculus can be planted in the garden in zones 8-10; in cooler zones 1-7, they must be started indoors and can be moved outdoors in the spring. Plant in a sunny location in well-drained soil. Ranunculus loves moisture during the growing period and drier conditions as summer progresses – so a spot with good drainage is a must. After the growing season ends, Ranunculus can overwinter in the garden in zones 8-10; in zones 1-7, grow them as annuals, or lift the tubers and store in a cool, dry, dark place over the winter months.
'Tecolote' Ranunculus Mix is also available for shipping in fall.
