Description
Ranunculus ‘Butterfly Eris is a magical variety in the Butterfly™ family, lovingly developed through Japanese breeding by Aya Engei.

This cultivar captivates with its double-shaped blooms in soft salmon and coral tones.

One of its best features is how the flowers gradually transition from one color to a lighter shade over time.Typically, each stem carries five to seven blooms, offering arrangements a delightful balance of fullness and airiness.

The tiny, wax-like coating on the petals gives them a pearlescent finish, making them appear enchantingly shimmering and offering long-lasting vase life.

The stems are both sturdy and graceful, strong enough to support the flowers elegantly without being hollow, making the cut blooms exceptionally durable and reliable.Butterfly Eris holds a special place in the heart of Johanna Damm, Florea’s dedicated growing expert, it's her absolute ranunculus favorite.

Each year, she grows it both as cut blooms and charming potted specimens.

Care and cultivation advice

1. Soaking
Place the tubers in lukewarm water for 2 to 4 hours. They will soften and swell as they absorb water. Do not soak them longer, as they may start to rot.

2. Planting
The tubers will become significantly larger after soaking. Plant them shallowly with the claws facing downward, about 3 to 5 cm deep. Seed trays or pots with slightly higher edges work well.

3. Placement
Place the planted tray in a cool, dark location. A temperature between 4 and 10°C is ideal. Too much warmth causes the leaves to grow too quickly before the roots have properly developed.

4. Care
Check the soil from time to time. Water sparingly, only if it is very dry. After about two to six weeks, small roots and the first shoots will appear.

5. Transplanting
Transplant outdoors between March and May, depending on where you live. It takes about three months from start to flowering.
