Bonbon Ranunculus make a bold statement in the garden with layers upon layers of bright magenta petals that resemble classic garden roses with a contemporary twist. These stunners do well in cooler climates when started indoors in winter and planted in spring. Whether they’re gracing your flower beds, adding a pop to planters, or cut for a dazzling bouquet, you’re sure to fall in love with these beauties!

Note: In Zones 8–10, ranunculus are grown as perennials—plant in fall for spring blooms. In Zones 4–7, they are treated as cool-season annuals. Start corms indoors in late winter and transplant after nights stay above 30°F, or dry-store them and plant in spring after hard frosts.

    Customer photo review of Ranunculus Bulbs - Bonbon

    They did well planted in Arizona winter and bloomed for spring. Starting to die off as the heat is coming. Planted 20 and all 20 came up! Happy about that. Color is beautiful and vibrant.

    Easy to plant and Easy to grow. People are fascinated by their beauty and at times ask if they are real. They grow back every year so I don't have to dig them up.
