Ranunculus Elegance ‘Rosa Chiaro 2P10’ is a premium Italian variety prized for its delicate blush-pink petals, gently layered into perfectly rounded, rose-like blooms. The colour is subtle and elegant — a pale, luminous pink that works effortlessly in gardens, wedding palettes, and sophisticated floral arrangements.

Part of the renowned Elegance Series bred in Italy for professional cut-flower production, Rosa Chiaro is celebrated for:

  • Exceptionally refined, pastel pink colouring

  • Perfectly symmetrical, multi-layered blooms

These extra-large grade 5/7 corms represent the best corm size available, delivering superior performance, stronger plants, thicker stems, and larger, more abundant blooms — ideal for gardeners and flower growers who want outstanding results.

🌱 Growing Ranunculus Elegance Rosa Chiaro in South Africa

Ranunculus perform best in cool to mild conditions, making them ideal for autumn and winter planting across most regions of South Africa.

☀️ Position

  • Full sun to light shade

  • Morning sun with protection from harsh afternoon heat is ideal

🌿 Soil

  • Well-draining soil is essential

  • Sandy or loamy soil enriched with compost works best

  • Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged areas

🌡️ Climate & Planting Time

  • Plant late autumn to early winter

  • Ideal daytime temperatures: 10–20°C

  • Light frost-tolerant once established (protect young shoots from hard frost)

Regional guidance:

  • Western Cape: Autumn planting for winter–spring flowering

  • Gauteng & Highveld: Late autumn planting; protect during severe frost

  • KZN & coastal areas: Plant in the coolest part of winter with good airflow

🌸 Planting Tips for Best Results

  • Soak corms in cool water for 3–4 hours before planting

  • Plant with the “claws” facing down

  • Plant 3–5 cm deep, spacing corms 10–15 cm apart

  • Water lightly after planting, then sparingly until growth appears

Once established, keep soil evenly moist but never waterlogged.

✂️ Flowering & Cutting

  • Blooms appear from late winter into spring

  • Cut stems early in the morning as buds begin to open

  • Regular cutting encourages continuous flowering

  • Ideal for soft, romantic bouquets and refined floral designs

❄️ Storing Corms for Later Planting

If planting later in the season:

  • Store corms dry, cool, and well-ventilated

  • Keep in a paper bag or breathable container

  • Ideal storage temperature: 5–10°C

  • Avoid humidity and moisture at all costs

Corms can be stored for several months and planted when winter conditions are ideal.
