Description
It’s all about going with the glow when you plant such a zingy number as Ranunculus 'Picotee Orange'. A bloom packed with so many petals will always catch your eye, when they’re in radiant shades of orange-red to yellow you absolutely can’t miss them. This brazen beauty positively flares with fearless luminosity, yet it does so in a way that’s incredibly gentle on the eye. The flowers open from tight red buds, gradually unfurling to reveal yellow and apricot shades, each petal with a red ripple on the outer edge!
If you’re into growing your own cut flowers to use in arrangements, a big bunch of Ranunculus asiaticus 'Aviv Picotee Orange' works a treat, dishing out a ready-made boho blend of red hot colour tones. Their long stems and impressive vase life make them all the more ideal for the job. In the garden, you can really make them pop by combining them with flowers in shades of dark purple or blue.
