Tecolote Ranunculus
Best choice for gardeners wanting elegant, long-lasting spring cut flowers.
These peachy, multi-petaled blooms bring a high-end florist aesthetic to your garden with remarkably sturdy stems. They demand a bit of extra effort in colder climates to overwinter the tubers, but the payoff is a profusion of delicate, butterfly-attracting color that feels far more luxurious than your average spring bulb.
