Experience With Ranunculus

Ranunculus are one of my favorite flowering annuals. Their average height is one 12 inches and grown equally sideways. plant is bushy with dark green foliage. They are propagated from corms as well as seeds.

Last year was my first experience with ranunculus but i loved these amazing flowers. they flowered in reds, purples, yellows and whites. But i planted them behind godetia which overshadowed these little beatuies. This time i decided to give a full flowerbed to it. This flowerbed is in a square shape with dimensions of 6 x 6 feet. The details of growing them this year will be shared in another post.

Here are some clicks from spring 2015. These were bought from nursery as seedlings. Planted them 1 feet apart and they turned into these beauties. In my opinion they should be planted either in pots or raised beds. By doing so these plants get protection from rain plus they are not left hidden or overshadowed by other nearby plants.
