Product description
Ranunculus Purple Heart brings a bold, luxurious touch to the garden, with fully double deep purple blooms formed from beautifully layered, silky petals. Each flower stands cleanly above the dark green foliage, adding depth and richness to borders, containers and cutting patches. Their strong, elegant stems make these Persian Buttercups excellent for cutting, offering long lasting blooms that hold their colour beautifully indoors as well as outside.
To grow Ranunculus Purple Heart, choose a bright, sunny position and plant the corms claw side down, 5cm deep in well drained soil. Water regularly as new growth appears, keeping the soil lightly moist, and feed occasionally to support strong stems and full blooms. Cooler spring temperatures help the buds develop well, while a little shelter from persistent rain keeps the delicate petals looking their finest once they open. As each corm produces multiple stems, the display builds steadily through May and June, creating a lively, uplifting show that bridges the seasons.

Instructions
Top Tip
Cutting Ranunculus flowers early in the morning helps them last longer in the vase and encourages the plant to produce more stems.
How to Water
Water Ranunculus regularly as the foliage begins to grow, keeping the soil lightly moist but never saturated, as the corms dislike sitting in heavy, wet ground. As the buds form and the flowers begin to open, steady moisture helps the stems stay strong and the blooms last longer, especially during warm or breezy weather.
How to Plant
Plant Ranunculus corms in well‑drained soil, placing them claw‑side down and covering them lightly so they sit just a few centimetres below the surface. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot where the soil can warm gently in spring, giving the corms the best start as they begin to grow.
