Ranunculus

Ranunculus is the crop that truly kicks off our busy season.  We never seem to have enough for everyone's desires!  Our ranunculus even has a mild sweet rose smell!  These bloom for us in our heated and unheated hoop houses between late January to early April.  The Butterflies last longer into April than the other varieties. 

Did you know ranunculus comes from Israel and is related to buttercups?

More saturated colors supposedly dry well, we have not attempted this yet though.

Vase Life= 8-14 days
