A longtime favorite of florists, the romantic cup-shaped, fully double blooms—with layers and layers of ruffled, papery petals—look like a cross of a peony and a tea rose. Maché™ Mix Ranunculus contains a multicolored mix of crayon-colored blooms in shades of white, cream, orange, purple, pink, rose, red, pastel mix, and yellow vanilla bicolor medley. Borne on tall stems, the elegant, lightly fragrant flowers attract pollinators and hummingbirds and make excellent long-lasting cuts for spring bouquets. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe Ranunculus asiaticus varieties in the Maché™ Mix have a uniform, upright habit of lush, feathery, parsley-like foliage that works well in beds, borders, and containers. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEasy to grow and versatile, Persian buttercups prefer full sun and sandy, slightly acidic, moist soil, but excellent drainage is essential. They perform best in climates with long, cool springs and relatively mild winters. Warm, wet conditions and heavy, unamended soils are not well tolerated. Deadheading keeps ranunculus blooming, and mulching around the plants keeps the soil cool and moist. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSeeds can be started indoors, approximately 6 weeks before bloom time, and transplanted into the garden after the threat of frost has passed in spring.
