Ranunculus - La Belle Pastel

Plants

Sale price$9.00
Size:

Not available for 2025.

One of my absolute favourite ranunculus varieties! Colours lean from pale true pastels to some brighter mid-colours in shades from cream, yellow, apricot, pink & magenta. It has the most unique colouring as unlike most ranunc varieties we grow which tend to have smoother colouring (or clearly definited picotee/striato), the La Belle Pastel has the most amazing depth to its colouring. The flowers are almost dusted in two layers of similar colours. They also just keep getting better, and better as they age, slowly fading and exposing their black centres at the very end.

I'm probably not doing them justice in my explanation, and they often photograph brighter than they feel in real life, so they are definitely one of those flowers that need to be seen in person to fully appreciate how uniquely special they are.

Anyways the breeder very sadly discontinued this variety a few years ago (the La Belle Series is naturally smaller than the Amandine series which is where they are currently focusing their breeding efforts on). I thankfully was able to order some of the very last seeds they had available and have slowly grown them out and saved corms for the last few years, and excitingly we have some corms to spare this year!

As La Belle Pastel is a mix it is a lucky dip which specific colour from the mix each plant will be.

Plant Type: Bulb

Ideal Location: Full Sun / Partial Shade

See our Ranunc Growing Guide for more growing info & tips, and if you're wondering why we're selling plants instead of corms see our post about Learning to Grow Ranuncs from Seed(lings).

2025 Ranunculus Release Schedule

We have so, soo many ranunculus plants in the works this season, with about three key successions and releases planned.

FIRST RELEASE: (Last Thursday 24 April) We will be restocking small numbers again late this week!
This is a smaller 'prequel' release, all the plants in this release are from our second year saved corms. If you miss out on anything this release, don't worry we will have absolutely oodles in our next much bigger release!

SECOND RELEASE: Very Late May – Early June
(Likely shipping the week after King's Birthday).
This is our big main release of the year, we should have plenty of plants to go around, and our Collections and lots of Sleeve Specials will be available this release too. The plants this release will primarily be our seedlings.

THIRD RELEASE: Late June - July
We'll finish off the season with plants from our second year saved corms again. This release may be less of an in sync release, and more of an added as they're ready series of mini releases.

Our Plant Boxes

We've designed our plant boxes to be as courier proof as physically possible to ensure your plants always arrive in top condition!

To cover the costs of our customs boxes we do however have a minimum plant order of $65 (approx. 7 plants) – you can mix & match any plants or sleeve specials to meet the minimum. (Plant Collection Boxes are however standalone boxes and do not count towards the minimums).

If you want to make the most of the shipping, our plant boxes can fit up to 10 plants per box, and for the most cost effective per plant shipping we can tape two boxes together (which fits 20 plants total).

Plant orders are shipped on Mondays (& Tuesdays).

See our Shipping Page for more info.
