When it is in bloom, the ranunculus bush reveals its golden-yellow flower balls to its viewers, which can even be double, depending on the species. But in which location does it produce the most flowers?
Which location does a ranunculus bush prefer?
The ideal location for a ranunculus bush is sunny to partially shaded, with a distance of at least 50 cm for hedges and 100 cm for other plantings. The substrate should be permeable, nutrient-rich and slightly acidic to neutral, without lime-rich soil.
Sunny, partial shade or shady – grows anywhere
Plant your ranunculus bush in a location of your choice in spring! This plant grows in the sun as well as in partial shade or even shade. It is even said that it produces the most beautiful flowers in the shade!
Still worth considering when choosing a location
But it's not just the location that decides the location. Other aspects are also important:
- Distance from hedges: at least 50 cm
- Distance for other plantings: at least 100 cm
- It is advisable to install a root barrier
- Substrate: permeable, nutrient-rich, slightly acidic to neutral
Tip
Make sure not to plant your ranunculus bush in a windy place and never plant it in lime-rich soil!
