Red roses are great but the big, beautiful rose-like blooms of Red Ranunculus in spring is even better! If you love bright red flowers, you're going to love our easy-to-grow ranunculus.
Tucked between your early perennials they'll energize borders and provide long-lived flowers for jazzy bouquets. No thorns, no black spot, no mildew. No kidding!
Ranunculus are hardy outdoors in zones 8-10 (for fall planting) but are more than welcome in gardens of cooler regions. In zones 3-7, simply purchase bulbs and keep them in a cool (but not freezing), dry spot until and plant outside in April or May in containers or the garden for a seriously impressive display.
