Ranunculus
Ranunculus
Ranunculus bloom here in Oregon in the Spring and we begin shipping in April. Their season is short, but magnificent, and they are by far one of the best cut flowers we grow because of their vase life, versatility in floral design work, and because they also dry well! Bunches are available in increments of 10 and 20. Ranunculus have many layers of petals, much like a rose, and can last up to two weeks in the vase.
Ranunculus are shipped FedEx Priority Overnight anywhere in the Continental US beginning the week of 4/24 and ship every Wednesday from the farm. Prices includes shipping and handling, so you will pay no additional fees at check-out. Make sure to choose the “Flat Rate Shipping” option and the use code WAVESHIPPINGFEE at checkout to avoid any additional shipping fees. Expect your order to arrive on Thursday or Friday, depending on your location. Don’t fear— your ranunculus tolerate traveling well, and we guarantee our fresh cut and shipped products in the case that something doesn’t go according to plan.
We sell “Grower’s Choice” colors of ranunculus in pastels or bold colors. What’s “Grower’s Choice” you ask? In a given week we look a what’s blooming in the field and harvest 10 or 20 of the most beautiful ranunculus out there on Wednesday morning. That means your blooms will be incredibly fresh when they arrive because we will ship them to you the next day! As always, all flowers are grown on the farm exclusively with organic methods.
Flowers will ship the Wednesday following your order placement, i.e. if you make your purchase on 4/22 for example, your shipment will go out on Wednesday, 4/24; Tuesday is our cut-off day in any given week for orders that week.
We include flower care tips with each order, but they are basically: Trim Those Stems. Flowers like to be refreshed with a trim; remove about ½” and make your 45 degree cut with a clean scissors or knife. Drink It Up. After traveling, your flowers will need a deep drink. Fill up a clean vessel with cold water. If your flowers appear wilted at first, do not fear! They should perk up in 2-4 hours once they’ve rested in water. Change water daily (if possible) to prevent bacteria from growing on stems and make your flowers last longer. After Care. Keep your beauties cool and out of direct sunlight.
