Ranunculus asiaticus ?over winter
Hi I found some of these beautiful bulbs and they are now in full bloom -
in all their glorious colours. My question is - do I have to store them over the winter as I would do for Dahlia - in a cool place in peat for example? Our winters can get below freezing for 4 or 5 days now and then but rarely lower than -2 to -4 C. Thanks for any suggestions. Jean Vancouver Canada |

Maybe, their winter is a bit harsher than ours? minus 2-4C during the day would indicate that the nights are much colder? Judith |
