• The Ranunculus bulb corms collection, is also commonly known as the Persian Buttercup or Ranunculi. This garden bulb mix comes in a variety of colours including red, purple, orange, yellow, white and lilac. These easy to grow half hardy flowering herbaceous perennials are all loved by pollinating insects, in particular bees and butterflies. This type of garden flower blooms in Summer and is great for height in the garden growing up to 25cm.

• These bulbs are great for growing in flower beds, containers and garden borders or also in patio pots. They look great when planted in mixed flower displays along with Dahlias. Rananculus will continue to grow each year with little maintenance and can be used as cut flowers allowing you to enjoy them in your home and garden.

• If you are not ready to plant bulbs now, then store them in a cool, dry, frost free, well ventilated location. A garage, shed, loft or cupboard are ideal. Open the paper bag to allow air to circulate round but leave the bulbs in their bags until ready to plant. Just make sure mice or other rodents cant get access to them. Keep an eye on your bulbs while in storage, if they are showing signs of going soft, it's best to get them planted before they deteriorate any further.

Watering Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil around the bulbs. During active growth, water in prolonged dry spells so the soil stays lightly moist but never waterlogged. Once the foliage naturally dies back, reduce watering and allow the bulbs to rest more dryly.

Best Growing Conditions Plant in fertile loam in sun or partial shade. Choose a position that does not stay waterlogged in winter, as good drainage helps bulbs return reliably. Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulb can store energy for the following season.
