Rose Chiaro 53P Ranunculus Corms

Rose Chiaro 53P Ranunculus are a have a bold green center that adds a little funk to the blushy pink petals. We're mad for it.

Ranunculus are just so perfect, they're like origami roses. Each corm produces dozens of flowers, and blooms for weeks in the late spring - helping your garden stay vibrant in between the early-spring bulbs and the summer blooms.

Ranunculus grow from corms, which are like little bulbs. Figuring out when to plant is a little tricky but don't worry, we'll talk you through it! Once you get them in the ground they really are not hard to grow.

Includes 15 corms with planting instructions and a wooden label stake.

Growing Info
How to Plant Soak your corms in room-temperature or cool water for 3-6 hours before planting. Allow a little trickle of water to run into the bowl as they rehydrate, or refresh the water every hour in order to increase the oxygen in the water (bad bacteria and mold spores like warm, oxygen deprived water). Plant immediately after soaking, 5" apart, 1-2" deep, with the little "claws" pointing down
Where to Plant Ranunculus like rich, well-draining soil. Supplement your dirt with compost or fertilizer when planting in the ground, or use fresh, quality potting soil for containers
When to Plant In warm zones (generally zones 7-10, 7 being the cusp), plant in the late fall for early spring blooms. If you live in a cold zone, with significant stretches of cold in the winter, (generally zones 6-2), plant in the late winter/very early spring instead, after your last hard frost. Corms can handle a brief, light frost, but will not survive if they are in temperatures below 30 degrees
When to Expect Blooms Fall planted corms bloom for about 6-7 weeks in the early spring, and spring-planted corms will blossom for about 4-6 weeks beginning in mid-spring. Blooms arrive generally 90 days after planting
Care Instructions Water regularly once the foliage emerges, and pick the flowers regularly to encourage more blooms. (Bring the flowers in! Make bouquets! Have fun!) And ask us any questions along the way

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • I live in Idaho zone 6b. Your instructions indicate to plant in spring. When will they be shipped?

    Hi there! The corms ship in the early fall, but they are currently in a dormant state, so they will be just fine until spring, stored in a cool, dry, dark place. You can learn more about planting corms here: https://plantgem.com/pages/ranunculus

  • If I order now, will you ship at the correct planting time? I'm located in upstate NY.

    Yes the corms will ship now with planting instructions!
