Wonderfully dramatic, the sumptuous colouring of this ranunculus will make a sublime partner for rich purples, softer pinks and fresh greens. Pretty impressive in pots or the early summer border, they also make quite long-lived additions to the vase, so I would plant more than you think you will need so you will have plenty left over for cutting.
How to care for Ranunculus Purple Heart:
Plant the talon-like corms in autumn or spring 8cm deep and a similar distance apart with their 'fingers' facing downwards.
