Ranunculus - What flower food should I use?
Question: Good Morning! I am using ranunculus in mixed arrangements for a Mothers of Multiples event this weekend. I have the Gerbera 'pills' and the lily T-bags from Chrysal, and 'regular' flower food of course. Is one of the specialty foods better for ranunculus? Thanks J and your Team! Love your shows and website! Have a wonder-full day! Answer:
Ranunculus - are bulb flowers... (Benefit from "BULB FOOD") and also have a fuzzy stem... (Benefit from CVBn Tablets) so I would most likely use the BULB Food... from Chrysal ... and add the CVBn Tablet to help reduce the bacteria level from the fuzzy stems... IN addition... I would also be sure to use COLD WATER (ice cold water) for the vase solution... (this is easy... measure the bulb food into a full bucket of clear water.. and place in the cooler over night... then use that solution to fill the vases... Add one CVBn table to the vase and arrange...To purchase Chrysal Flower Nutrients- Visit the uBloom store... www.uBloom.com/BuyChrysal
