Planting Instructions:

Ranunculus thrive with a cool start for strong root development and optimal flowering. They grow best at a soil temperature of 5-10 °C in the initial phase. They can withstand light frost (-3 °C), but protect them with fleece or mulch during severe frost.

Planting in Autumn (for early spring blooms):

• When? Late September to November.
• Where? In a cool greenhouse or outdoors in mild climates.
• Important: Keep soil temperatures below 15 °C during root growth.

Planting in Spring (for summer blooms):

• When? February to April.
• Where? Start in a cool greenhouse and move outdoors once there’s no longer a risk of frost, or plant directly outdoors if severe frost is no longer expected.
• Important: Begin at 5-10 °C and ensure ambient temperatures do not exceed 20 °C once the plants sprout.
