Ranunculus Aviv (Persian Buttercup) size 7+ - 20 corms
Aviv Ranunuculus also called Persian Buttercups, have beautiful delicate blooms, perfect for cut flowers that last 2 - 3 weeks in a vase.
They produce 8-10 peony shaped flowers on 12-16" stems with large flowers measuring 4-5" across. Space 4 inches apart and 2 inches deep. Plant with the fingers of the corm pointing down into the soil.
Ranunculus bloom when the daytime temperatures are around 50F (similar to pansies), taking 12 - 16 weeks from planting to bloom.
Ranunculus corms look like tiny octopus. They are shipped dried for storage until you get ready to plant them. Soak corms in room temperature water for 3-4 hours before planting if you are planting in the spring.
Well-draining soil is a must otherwise the corms will rot. Water only once when you first plant and then don't water again until you see leaves. If the soil dries out, then slightly mist the top of the soil but don’t saturate. Then moderately water as needed for the rest of the growing season. Do not overwater or corms will mold and rot.
Zones 7b - 11:
In these zones they are considered perennial. Plant them in the fall and they'll bloom in early spring when daytime temps are around 50 degrees. Plant in full sun. Water once when you plant them, then don't water again until you see leaves and blooms in the early spring. Once it hits 70 degrees outside, stop watering. Wait for the plant to die back completely before cutting it back. It's storing up for next year's bloom. The plant will die at 25 degrees, if temps dip below 30 degrees make sure to cover with a frost blanket.
Zones 7a and lower:
In these zones they are considered an annual, but you can dig them up in the fall and store them indoors in a dry, dark place for the following year. You can store in an organza bag, or a paper bag works well too. About 90 days before your daytime temperatures reach 50 degrees, soak dried corms for 3 - 4 hours, then pre-sprout the corms in a shallow flat or pot with slightly moist soil. Keep them in a cool, dark place for 2 - 4 weeks until you see root growth. Check daily for rot and don't water. If you have any corms that are mushy or moldy, remove from flat/pot and discard so as not to infect the rest of your corms. Once you have roots, plant them outside in full sun once daytime temps are 35 degrees after your last freeze and your night temperatures are 30 - 40 degrees. Cover with a frost blanket if your nighttime temperatures dip into the 20s. Water once when you plant them, then don't water again until you see leaves and blooms in the early spring. Once it hits 70 degrees outside, stop watering. Wait for the plant to die back completely before digging the corms up for storage.
