Called the 'Rose of Spring', Ranunculus will provide gorgeous blooms throughout the start of the season, giving you an abundance of flowers long before the Roses wake up.
Autumn sown plants will need a protected growing space, either undercover in a greenhouse or polytunnel or in pots in a greenhouse. They will start blooming well before the last frosts. Frosts will damage the leaves and the flowering stems.
The protected growing environment will also give you very tall stems.
By early May, Autumn started corms will begin to shut down due to the very warm polytunnel temperatures. Plants have also been growing a very long time so in late Winter/early Spring I sow another round of corms.
This 2nd sowing will give me flowers in May and June, and depending on your local conditions, you might still be picking flowers in early July.
REMINDER: DO NOT START CORMS DECEMBER OR JANUARY - LIGHT LEVELS ARE TOO LOW AND CORMS COULD ROT IN THE COLD.

Now I learned to buy F1 Hybrids. 'Rose of Spring and' Porcelain' are beautiful varieties. Hi from Germany.
They are the best, sending good wishes back x
Due to complete over excitement, I couldn't wait and sowed all of my corms as soon as they arrived...🤣. Today is day 11 and the first shoots have appeared! Porcelain first out of the blocks!🤸♀
Hooray!
Amazing video ❤. I wanted to plants a lot got them close together so it’s full of greens and flowers. But probably won’t now. One question, how deep do you plant them?
It's probably easier to show you, here is a video xxx

How long do you soak the corms? Thanks. Enjoyed your informative videos.
I have videos showing you exactly on my website. There is a whole section dedicated to Ranunculus

Hi Zoe, only recently found your channel and I’ve missed your seed sales 🙁
Your videos are wonderful, I’m trying to catch up with them all!
Is your greenhouse heated? And is there any chance you could do a video showing how your beds are constructed with all the wire squares and what to use please? I’m just going to order your sow a long ebook 🙂 Thanks very much ❤
If you go to my website there is a page on how we make our frames and beds with all the measurements and timber used
Here is quick link

Greenhouse is unheated with only a couple of heat mats. More details also available on my website x
@@zoewoodwardgardening Brilliant, thanks so much for taking time to reply ⭐️
Such informative video - new subscriber here! I planted my very first Ranunculus back in Nov and I had them in our loghouse during the cold snap in Dec. By the time I took them out, they were leggy 😩I guess there was was not enough light for them to photosynthesis. Took them out and watered them and I think I got a bit heavy handed with my watering (first timer's many mistakes ☹😢) Now, most of them have gone rotten and some wilting 😭😭I don't know if I can still save the rest - I put them out by the wall in our front porch to be protected from the wind. Do they need to be in direct sunlight? Also, what temperature is too low for Ranunculus for me to return it back indoors? TiA
As they have been in the wars I’d protect them from freezing temperatures. xxx
Zoe have you noticed any difference in the speed of germination between the varieties? All but one of my Champagne are up now, but Marshmallow only popped it's first 2 thru yesterday, 23 days after sowing! I was starting to panic! 😆At what point do I start digging them up to see if they've rotted? What's happening with yours? x Update?
They will vary. Make sure plenty of light and dont over water. I have some take 5 weeks before!
Zoe I've had a ranunculus disaster! After waiting patiently for over 5 weeks now(!), I decide to have a dig around and 12 out of 20 of my Marshmallow have rotted 😱😭, with 2 still doing nothing and only 6 germinated...gutted. Chamallow not much better - 10 out of 20 germinated, the rest rotted. So gutted as these were the two colours I was most excited to get to grow this year...😭😭😭 I will baby the ones that have germinated! On a more positive note I have 20 out of 20 Champagne and 19 out of 20 Violetto. Porcelaine & Purple Jean over half have germinated, may have a rummage thru those too later... Marshmallow & Chamallow the poorest germination...I have no idea why! Maybe I stared at them too much? 😂Don't suppose you have any spares do you? 👀x💕
It sounds like you overwatered them or your greenhouse is in the wrong location. Sort that first before you start any more… have a check to see if the champagne just had more sunshine. We are seeing if we can add a few colours for the January shop xxx
@@zoewoodwardgardening Thanks for the reply Zoe. I treated them all the same, and didn't water at all as was so humid in the zippy, the soil must have been too wet to start with, despite me trying to be extra careful 😢 as I was determined that this would not happen ... also, in some of the rotted corms I saw little white worms (urgh, shivers), google said they were nematodes? Could this be the problem? Would the nematodes be in the compost? Oh well, you live and learn with gardening! Gutted. x
Can ranunculous corms that were received from the supplier in late winter be stored until fall & then started?
If you store them carefully keep them cool and dry
