Plant corms directly outdoors in prepared beds. Position corms with the pointed end up, about 2 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart. Plant in fall in mild climates for spring blooms, or in early spring as soon as soil is workable in cooler regions.
Cut stems when the outer petals have just begun to unfurl but the flower is still relatively closed; ranunculus open progressively over several days in the vase, so this timing gives you maximum vase life. Use sharp scissors or a knife to make clean cuts early in the morning when stems are fully hydrated. Cut stems at a 45-degree angle and immediately place in cool water. Flowers reach peak harvestability around 75 to 95 days after planting.
Cut stems for arrangements just as flowers begin to open; this encourages the plant to produce additional blooms. Remove spent flowers promptly to redirect energy into new flower production rather than seed development.
