Growing Aviv Mix Ranunculus Bulbs
Plant bulbs in early spring after frost danger has passed, or in fall in mild climates. Consider using a frost cloth or other cover to protect from late spring frost. Soak corms in water for 3-4 hours before planting. Avoid over-soaking as this can lead to rot. Place 2-3 inches deep, claws down, spaced 6-8 inches apart in well-drained soil with full sun. Water lightly until growth appears, then keep evenly moist.

Harvesting Aviv Mix Ranunculus
Cut blooms when buds are just beginning to open for the longest vase life. Regular cutting encourages more flowers. The typical vase life of ranunculus is 10-12 days. In cold regions, lift corms after foliage dies back and store in a cool, dry place until the next planting season.
