Why are Butterfly Ranunculus so expensive?
Butterfly ranunculus corms are expensive because the tissue culture process is labor-intensive, low-yield and takes three years. Many varieties are patent protected limiting production. This produces disease-free, florist-grade flowers with large blooms and long stems well worth the premium pricing.
Zones 7 or higher can plant in fall. Otherwise, ranunculus should be planted in a tunnel, heated structure, or held until the end of winter/early spring. If corms are exposed to temperatures below 25°F, they can freeze and eventually rot. Protection from extreme cold temperatures is critical. Read more about growing methods here.
