RANUNCULUS 
September to May Delivery 
Culture: Ranunculus are very easily grown. Soak the 
bulbs in water for a few hours before planting and cover 
with two inches of soil. In very heavy soils cover with 
pure sand. The bulbs have finger like projections and 
these should be planted points down. 
For a gocd garden display space them from 4 to 6 
inches apart. Do not use fresh fertilizers, the soil should 
be enriched some time before the roots are set out. A 
liberal supply of water with good drainage is essential. 
In the South and California, Ranunculus may be planted 
in early fall for winter bloom, and from that time on in suc- 
cession until spring. When planting for late spring and 
summer blooming place the bulbs where a little shade 1s 
available. In the colder sections they must not be planted 
until all danger from frost is past. 
Rananculus are very attractive grown in pots or boxes in 
the greenhouse on a sunny location.
