How to Plant Ranunculus Bulbs

How to Plant Ranunculus Bulbs Planting ranunculus bulbs is an easy way to add vibrant, rose-like blooms to your garden. Start by soaking the corms in water for 3-4 hours to help them hydrate. Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil, and plant the corms with the "claw" side down, about 2 inches deep and 4-6 inches apart. Water lightly after planting, then regularly once growth appears. Ranunculus thrive in cool temperatures, so plant in early spring or late fall, depending on your climate. With proper care, you'll enjoy a stunning display of colorful flowers.
