Ranunculus is among the most beautiful of all flowers, but can be intimidating to grow at home. Well, Magic Mix does away with those fears by sporting a dwarf habit, short-stemmed (but big) blooms, and a quicker finish time! Give it a whirl this season and we think you’ll be delighted by the lush, bright, many-petaled opulence of this Persian Buttercup.
The flowers are fully double, absolutely jammed with petals held in a whorled pattern like Roses, but they are far, far longer-lasting. The colors include bright shades of red, rose, orange, yellow, pink, and white. They appear on 6- to 8-inch stems above the large green foliage of this neat little plant. Expect the plant to reach just 8 to 10 inches high and wide. You never need to stake these blooms!
And Magic Mix begins flowering just 12 to 14 weeks after sowing. It takes its time germinating — 2 to 3 weeks — and grows slowly for about 2 months, then starts setting buds. A fine houseplant in indirect light, it is trouble-free. If grown outdoors, it will bloom in spring. Packet is 10 seeds.
