Pastello Striato
Note: Ranunculus ship starting in late September to late October based on availability and your zone, unlike other products.
Boasting a delightful mix of colors, this Ranunculus creates creamy white blooms, each trimmed in a contrasting color along the edges in shades of blush, peach, buttercream, and purple. Growing 20” to 24” tall, it makes an excellent cut flower. It blooms in late spring (zones 8-11) to early summer (zones 4-7) and grows as a perennial in zones 8-11. In Zones 4–7, corms should be lifted, dried, and replanted each spring.
Pastello Striato is sold in packs of 10.
Planting Instructions:
Plant Ranunculus in the fall for zones 8-11 for spring blooms. In zones 4-7, store the hardened corms in a cool, dark place and plant in early spring for early summer blooms.
-
Soak corms in room-temperature water for 3-4 hours; avoid oversoaking.
-
Choose an area with full sun for planting.
-
Add compost and a balanced fertilizer to your soil.
-
Plant corms 9” apart, 2-3” deep, with tentacles facing down in the soil.
- Water after planting and continue weekly watering to ensure the corms do not dry out for the remainder of the growing season.
