Thank you for the great video. I'm new to planting these flowers, but I found some ranunculus and anemone bulbs in the local garden center last fall, and planted them in my outdoor bulb garden in October! I'm in zone 6B just south of you in Treasure Valley and I really hope they bloom- but we haven't had much moisture other than good snow in Dec so far. If the ground planting fails. I will definitely be using your tips next season! I have a question on the resin planters that you painted black. How do you keep them from cracking in the winter? Is there a particular brand that you recommend? I cannot seem to leave any planters outside over winter without having chips and cracks. Thanks so much!

My sister and I fell behind viewing your recent videos and have spent the day binge watching to catch up. BIG MISTAKE! After viewing everyones beautiful before and after photos of their fabulous spaces and watching you prep and start the corms, were aching for spring! We live in Northern Minnesota (Zone 3b) and feels like it will be forever before well be able to satisfy our botanical needs. Todays video felt like watching a Mr. Rogers show in the way you gracefully teach us every step of the process. Thank you so much! And, if you and/or Aaron figure out how to bottle your energy level, I would be first in line to purchase!

Hello GA! I'm in zone 6a, Ohio. I purchased some ranunculus corms from Lowe's last fall. I planted these in a container last November/December according to the planting instructions. I did not soak them, but I did water them in. I placed them outside right up against my house where they are getting south facing sun/warmth. Should I dig these out and start over with the soaking process or leave them and hope for the best. They have also been covered with the bottom cuts from Christmas trees for warmth. Thank you for all your gardening advice!

Thanks for taking us along today. I too went out into my fenced garden area. Finally, no ice or snow to hamper the way. I even sat on my garden bench and took in the sunshine, fresh air, beautiful blue sky and white whisp clouds. The robins were even canoodling in the trees. I found several small sprouts of this and that trying to emerge. I came right inside and went to internet to order some bulbs. Anticipation and patience are hand in hand right now.

Very enjoyable to watch that process of pre planting bulbs. I love it when my snapdragons flowers die off and leave the dried pods. Whoa there's at least 50 tiny black seeds in each of the pods. If i miss that opportunity it doesn't matter as they self seed and blow around everywhere and start to grow and its a surprise when they do pop up somewhere. But on the other hand I do love to collect the seeds for my seed bank.

Thank you for showing what wasnt done on time. :) I am zone 5B. for those pansy and kale, cold tolerant plants, will they come back in the spring? Can you pre soak other bulbs/corms same like what you did? Say begonia (hanging/splendor) or Heuchera? Its been so many years Ive watched your videos and have learned so much. Thank you for all the efforts and consistency that motivate us every day!

Laura, here it is on what could be a boring February day with nothing really needing our attention in the garden, yet you have pulled out several things that were simple and fun. Just hanging with you while you do a variety of gardening and non-gardening things are always enough to keep us engaged & having coffee with you every morning, thanks for letting us tag along: D

I'm in zone 8a in Central Texas. I have ranunculus in the ground, and they have bloomed one season (last spring. Because of my zone, I just left them in the ground. Now I'm wondering if I should dig them up to separate the corms or just leave them in the ground forever? Will they choke themselves out? Spring is almost here in South TX! It's in the low 70's this week! Whoop!

I had commented that Id love to see a ranunculus/anemone video again. Dont know if you saw it but thank you so much! Im trying my hand at them for the first time this year. I did find out that it can take 9 weeks to presprout if you dont soak them the designated 4 hours. I pulled them out at 2 hours. Didnt realize until I planted them that if only done it two hours
