Ranunculus – Tecolote Merlot

As smooth and sensual as its namesake, Ranunculus Merlot offers large, breathtaking wine-purple blooms that are fantastic for containers or in the garden. These spring bloomers also make phenomenally long-lasting cut flowers.

As one of the newest cultivars on the market, Ranunculus Merlot is incredibly easy to grow everywhere and a favorite among growers and customers. This beauty can be hard to find, but we have them just for you!

Our Ranunculus bulbs are hardy outdoors in zones 8-10 (for fall planting) but are more than welcome in gardens of cooler regions.
