'Picotee Rosa' bears densely double pink flowers with contrasting edges. This ranunculus from the Aviv series looks delicate and romantic. It grows around 35–45 cm tall, flowers in June and July and suits pots, border edges and delicate arrangements.

About this variety

The flowers of 'Picotee Rosa' look as if they had been hand-coloured. The many petals are pink, and their edges are finely set off. This edging emphasises the round, double shape and gives each flower definition. The variety looks romantic without being sugary and belongs to the Aviv series.

At around 35–45 cm tall, it is ideal for pots on the balcony and patio or the front of a bed. It grows in sun and partial shade. The 20 tubers make a dense group or two medium-sized pots. White marguerites, catmint or pale blue violas go well with the soft tones.

In the vase the fine markings come into their own up close. Cut the stems when the buds show colour and are beginning to open, and they will last a long time. Combined with white or fresh greenery, they make light arrangements for the table. Bees hardly use the double flowers, but you will get plenty of pleasure from them in June and July.

Planting

Soak the tubers for 3–4 hours before planting. Plant them from March to May, claws pointing downwards, 5 cm deep and 10 cm apart. Choose a sunny to partially shaded spot with loose soil. Fleece protects against late frost.

Care

Keep the soil moist, without waterlogging. In pots, give a little liquid fertiliser every two weeks. Cut off faded stems. The tubers are not hardy: lift them once the foliage has died back and store them dry and frost-free.
