Ranunculus 'Purple Heart' (ranunculus bulbs)

Ranunculus ‘Purple Heart’ (ranunculus bulbs) was £2.99 now £2.49
Position: full sun Soil: fertile, moist but freely draining Rate of growth: average to fast Flowering period: May to June Flowering colour: deep burgundy Hardiness: fully hardy Wonderfully dramatic, the sumptuous colouring of this ranunculus will make a sublime partner for rich purples, softer pinks and fresh greens.

Garden care: Plant the tallon-like corms in autumn or spring 8cm deep and a similar distance apart with their ‘fingers’ facing downwards.
