Ranunculus Elegance Bianco Sfumato

Discover Nuanced Beauty with Ranunculus Elegance Bianco Sfumato Corms

Infuse your garden with the delicate sophistication of Ranunculus Elegance Bianco Sfumato. This exquisite perennial features fully double flowers with pristine white petals subtly edged in soft pink, creating a truly ‘nuanced’ or ‘sfumato’ coloring. It’s a masterful blend of subtle hues that will add an artistic touch to any landscape.

These plants produce large, fully double flowers packed with petals, blooming on strong, impressive stems that reach 40-60 cm tall. Mature plants will grace your garden with a continuous display over a generous 6-week period. This variety is perfectly suited for high-quality cut flower production, making it a favorite for florists or for creating elegant displays in beds and borders.

Beyond its ethereal beauty, Ranunculus Elegance Bianco Sfumato is also a wonderful addition to your garden’s ecosystem, actively attracting bees and butterflies. It thrives in fertile, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. For best results, ensure full sun exposure, though it appreciates afternoon shade when temperatures climb above 38°C.

To grow Ranunculus from tubers, start by soaking the tubers in cool water for a few hours until they plump up. Then, plant them in a well-draining potting mix with the “claw” side down, covering them with about 2 inches of soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, and provide a cool, dark location for pre-sprouting. Once they develop roots and shoots, they can be transplanted to a sunny spot with well-draining soil, or into larger containers for greenhouse growing.
