Other information
• Choose a sunny but sheltered spot in a border or in a pot. • Soak the tubers for 3 to 10 hours, preferably overnight. • Plant the tubers with their "claw" down, about 3 to 5 cm deep and water immediately. • Make sure the soil around the ranunculus remains moist and continue to water throughout the growing season if the soil begins to become dry.
