Ranunculus are one of the most special flowers we grow on our farm, and now you can grow them too. These are no ordinary ranunculus corms - we’ve grown MANY different varieties of ranunculus, and the Italian varieties are easily the most fabulous. They have taller stems and much larger blooms with many more petals than other varieties. This year we are offering more varieties than ever - these are my FAVORITE colors to grow and I’m excited to get them into your hands and gardens!

Bianco Sfumato: We grew these for the first time last year and they are INCREDIBLE! Large cream colored blooms appear to have been softly air brushed with pink which ranges from blush through brighter hot pink. These were the most productive ranunculus we grew last year - each plant was loaded with blooms and produced for a very long time. Flowers also have a mild, sweet fragrance.

Pastello: A mix of the prettiest pink blooms, ranging from pale blush through medium bubblegum pink. The fun thing about this color is that each plant produces flowers that are slightly different in shape and form. All blooms are very large and quite tall.

It takes some gardening know-how to grow this flower, and we will send detailed instructions on how to pre-sprout and plant them. We grow our Ranunculus in zone 8b and they do wonderfully when planted in the fall. They sprout a small mass of greenery that survives the winter, and then start blooming in late March / early April. They are a cool-loving plant, but some folks with extremely cold winters have more success planting them in late winter / early spring. Please do some research on your growing zone and how to best grow ranunculus where you live.

Each unit for purchase is a bag of 10 corms - they range in size from 4/5 - 5/6 and will look sad and pathetic upon arrival. But those shriveled spider-looking things will turn into some amazing flowers under the right growing conditions! Ours usually bloom heavily for about 2-3 weeks and then continue putting out flowers here and there for another 1-2 weeks. Bloom cycle for this plant is heavily affected by the weather, so some years are definitely better than others. Here in Oregon we don’t rely on them coming back every year, but we do have a few that pop up every year no matter how harsh the winter was.

All corms are packed up and ready to ship to you as soon as you order them. Unfortunately we are unable to ship to California. If you’d like to pick up your order at the farm please select on-farm pickup at checkout.
