How to keep Ranunculus Ternatus.
Water
Water Ranunculus ternatus only when the soil is dry during the seedling stage to prevent root decay from excess moisture. During peak growth, supply 9-10 mm of water weekly, and reduce this amount by half in winter. After the buds emerge, keep the soil slightly moist. Minimize watering in the summer and reduce it even further in the winter.
Pruning
Pruning Ranunculus ternatus from early to late spring promotes healthy growth and vibrant blooms. To achieve the best results, focus on a few key techniques: remove dead stems, thin out overcrowded areas, and shape the plant for aesthetic appeal. Regular pruning also helps prevent pests and diseases. Always use clean, sharp tools for the most effective pruning.
