Cut Flower Ranunculus Italian Pastello Seedling Pack

Ranunculus asiaticus

Italian Cut Flower Ranunculus seedlings, grown in Marlborough by Gray Floral, with free standard shipping in NZ.

This pastel mix is the best we've grown. Soft shades of blush, pink and salmon, with the odd deeper shade. A great mix for getting a range of spring shades, and with the standout Italian performance in the home garden. 

We were unable to get the salmone seed this year, but this mix has lovely shades of salmon in it so we won't be missing out entirely!

 Pack of 6 or 12 Ranunculus Pastello Plants 

 Standard NZ shipping included. If you are rural, please select the rural option at checkout to avoid delays in processing your order. 

Height: 25-40cm

Spacing: 20-25cm

Harvest: When the blooms have started to unfurl the outer layers of petals, the best way to tell is to gently squeeze the bud and it should feel soft and squishy like a marshmallow. If the centre still feels hard give them a little longer!

Vase life: 10-14 Days

All our seedlings are grown in a custom cut flower mix which contains Trichoderma to assist in healthy root development and resistance to root pathogens. To give your seedlings the best start in your garden we recommend soaking them in a weak seaweed feed (or one of our "Seedling Shots") before planting. 

We are proud to be partnering with Sustaina Grow to package our seedlings in a wool wrap that maintains moisture and protects the seedlings in transit. On arrival, take your plants out of the box and give them a good drink of water - you can leave them wrapped in the wool to do this! When you're ready to plant or pot on you can unwrap the seedlings, but they will happily spend a couple of days in their wool blanket before planting.

This wool liner makes a wonderful mulch mat that can be used with your seedlings or around any plant in your garden. Everything apart from labels (which we hope you'll use in the garden and time and time again) and stickers are compostable, in an effort to keep our shipping sustainable for the environment.
