Flowers that look almost too perfect to be real.

Ranunculus Romance ™

Ranunculus are classic spring flowers, with cup-shaped blooms and layers of delicate petals unfurling from a tight center. The petals are paper thin and are complemented by a light green “eye” in the center of the bloom. These flowers are a delight to watch unfold!

Ranunculus are not safe for human or animal consumption.

Keep out of direct sunlight.

Water	Place in a clean vase filled two-thirds with fresh water. Change water about every 2-3 days and add “plant food” to help preserve flowers.
Temperature	To preserve the vitality of the flowers, place in a cool area. Keep away from heat or drafts.

This species of Ranunculus is believed to originate from central Asia.
Why is it called “Ranunculus”? In the wild, some Ranunculus species grow in wet habitats. The name “Ranunculus” is derived from the Latin word for “little frog” which is a reference to these growing conditions.

Fill a clean vase two-thirds with cold water. City treated water is perfect, as it has some good sanitizing qualities that work very well to keep water clean.
When preparing “flower food” for your vase you may want to use a small amount of warm water to dissolve this food well, than mix into vase before adding cold water.
Use a sterile knife or sharp scissors (be careful) to trim about one inch off from the bottom of each stem at a 45° angle—it’ll make it easier for your Ranunculus to slurp up all that tasty water. Do not use a dull cutting tool as you may accidentally squish the cells at the end of the stem, preventing water uptake.
Remove all excess foliage that would rest below the vase’s waterline, as the leaves can introduce potentially harmful bacteria to the water. Keep all other leaves on!
Carefully drop the Ranunculus flowers in and arrange how you see fit—just make sure they have adequate support and room to bloom.
Help preserve the flowers by changing the water about every 2-3 day. During this time you should also re-trim your stems and add a new packet of “plant food”.

Keep flowers away from ripening fruits or vegetables. Ripening fruit gives off ethylene gas which will reduce your flower vase life

Ranunculus naturally grow in a curve and not a straight line unlike most flowers.
Ranunculus have hollow stems, which mean that florists have to be extra careful not to crush or break them.
