Meet one of our showstoppers Ranunculus Butterfly Hera, a garden goddess with petals to prove it! This award-winning beauty flaunts a double layer of glossy pink petals that blush from soft white tips to rich, rosy centers—like a pink sunset in full bloom. As she matures, her color softens into a dreamy pale pink edged in white, giving each flower a graceful, evolving charm. With blooms that are surprisingly big for a Butterfly type, Hera brings bold color and elegance to borders, bouquets, and everything in between.

Note: In Zones 8–10, ranunculus are grown as perennials—plant in fall for spring blooms. In Zones 4–7, they are treated as cool-season annuals. Start corms indoors in late winter and transplant after nights stay above 30°F, or dry-store them and plant in spring after hard frosts.

Unauthorized reproduction and sale of corms is prohibited by the breeder.
