Ken is just the best editor. Adding in past views when you are talking about it really puts your videos into professional category. That has to take good planning, organized labeling on all your parts, time, and skill. Great team you have there! And all nice productive quality people!! It’s encouraging 😊
I was thinking the same thing! Nice job Ken
Could I grow them inside in containers inside? My granddaughter is getting married the last weekend in July. I would like to grow her flowers in her bouquet. We are a zone 6.
If you watch her "Garden Answer Highlights" channel (the latest video) you will see Ken.
@@nitamihlfeld9845 congrats for your granddaughter getting married in July. What a fun idea to grow her flowers, I think these are early season flowers. I think she said they bloom in May and June, so I'm guessing they'd be done by the heat of July. Perhaps look into another variety of if you think these would be done blooming by then. I'm sure there's some flowers you could grow for her
I love Laura and Team
Very impressive you got stung by a wasp and barely skipped a beat. I would have cried like a baby and stopped filming for sure. Your a trooper Laura! Love your videos
Oh my goodness, I would have stopped and seriously considered burning down the place.
@@bexdiller 😄 I hear ya!
I would have had to
Go to the Er! Very allergic to bee stings
I have to carry an epi pen at all times in the garden.... anaphylaxis
@@pcodignoni9344 It's not a bee... that was a wasp.
I just love how Russell always wants to be near you and is so affectionate! I’ve had two cats like that…Velcro cats 😄
That actually looked like a wasp. I hope your leg is better by this time. I LOVE seeing your kitties. MY kitty stays with me all the time too. Great video! Thanks.
They probably should look around for a nest, especially if the kids will be playing on that grass patch.
You are correct Pam and I bet there is a nest on the underside of that bench where she was sitting. They are very aggressive when you get near their nest.
Russell may have actually been trying to alert Laura to the wasp danger.
Cats are super aware of what’s going on around them.
Yes, please check all of the tables for wasp nests to avert any more unwanted encounters. 🍀
Was that a wasp or a yellow jacket. Where I live yellow jackets nest in the ground.
@@AuntBecky1 yellow jacket is type of wasp.
Hi Laura- Beekeeper here- that girl is most certainly a young yellow jacket queen. (wasp) I'm sure your greenhouse is a cozy place for her to overwinter. Only the young queens survive after the nest dies in the fall. They slumber in a sheltered place and await spring- when they can rebuild a small paper nest (alone) lay eggs and then begin to build their empire. Her only job is to survive right now- looks like she woke at the wrong time. I found a black and white queen in my crawl space last week I accidentally awakened. Sad advice- but anytime you see one of these gals, take them out with your shoe. It will save a whole lot of stings in the late summer. Yes, they are pollinators and harmless for most of the season, until late summer/early fall when they become a real problem- for your family and also honeybees.
Not a bee- a wasp. Much love and thanks for the vid!
What a lovely and informative thing to write about the sting. I also felt she was very tough to just keep on the show going. Like Roosevelt when he was shot mid speech. I love how you speak about the young queens so endearing. Most people would see them as immediate enemy.
I feel like this is something that would make Aaron chuckle. A few years ago I looked up why we say “knock on wood”. I learned that when we say/do that we’re “summoning the spirit of the tree”. The first knock is for the favor and the second knock is to thank the spirit of the tree for the favor.
Wasp/yellow jacket. Look for the nest so the kids don’t get stung. Love the paper bag idea. I have used mesh bags and the forms catch on them. Thanks for the tips.
That looked like a wasp to me! Might want to check that structure and make sure no one is building a hive in there to take advantage of the extra temp control!
We’re so starved for color of any kind up here in Michigan that I kept pausing the video during shots of the ranunculous blooming in years past so I could soak up the beauty ❤ Thanks for all your hard work bringing us great content day in and day out!!
I'm in Wisconsin and I'm going to try these this year. They're just beautiful!
As the past says.... open,open,Open. Flowers. Can't wait. Her she comes spring. Isn't this fun just watching.
I’m excited to see the start of the ranunculus. Those colors that you picked feed my soul. They might not be inflicted by insects, but that bee 🐝 found you. Ouch! Thank you for continuing on. 😊
Oh no!!! So sorry you got stung by the bee. You handled that so much better than I would have.. I always enjoy watching you get flower's ready for planting. I can't wait for that to happen.
Oh, Laura that is a wasp…great show & commentary! Make a paste 1tsp. Baking soda & 1/2 tsp. Olive oil for wasp sting! Take Care.
Ranunculus is one of my favorite flowers to design with. The many different colors, the lasting quality, and the elegance it brings to a cut flower arrangement. ♡ I have never grown my own, but you make it seem so easy that I may have to try. Sorry about your bee sting! Ouchie! I love that Cheddar came to your rescue and "took care" of it for you! Sweet boy. ♡ I noticed him over your shoulder, licking his chops and giving himself a bath afterward. Those kitties love their mama!♡
Good morning, Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸 ❤️ 🇺🇸
Chilly, 40°F, here in Central Florida. 🥶
🌞But warming up 🌞
Happy Gardening Everyone 👍👩🌾👍
Some days I watch your show with my 14th month old daughter and she LOVES spotting Russell! She puts her hands to the side when he disappears and claps when he pops back in. We would love a cat montage video in our house! 🐈🐈
👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Nice to see bright annuals in the middle of winter on “blue Monday”. Can’t wait to see them in bloom. 👍🏼
Ranunculus were my mom's favorite flower but she couldn't have them (way back when) because winters in Virginia were too cold. When my parents moved to CA, it was the first thing she put in the backyard! She would be thrilled you were starting them inside. She started tuberous begonias inside every year like a ritual of Spring. Thanks for a wonderful memory of her -- love your videos, so upbeat and encouraging!
That bee just came outta nowhere! Lol love the beautiful colors on the ranunculus! Gives me hope and excitement for spring 🌸
Happy Monday GA family! Only Laura can get bit by a bee & keep going lol. That looks like a yellow jacket & those things are nasty!!! Hope your ok Laura❤️
We ❤️ Russell, what a Ham! So gentle and kind.
And so it begins. Now that the holidays are behind us, we will be doing the impatient count down to spring. These will be an amazing display.
So random for a wasp to do a stealth attack!😮. Looked like Russel was in the background snacking on the spicy little jerk. 💚💚💚
Good morning, Laura ☕️ 😳I cannot believe you were stung! In tthe Winter! 🫢 You have opened my eyes 👀 to Ranunculus; they’re gorgeous 😍 As always, very helpful video. Well done, Ken. Have a Blessed day 😊🐈
Oh thank you!!!!!! I’ve been wanting to grow ranunculus for a while now. And you’ve made this such an easy process!!!!
I’m so sorry you got stung by that bee!! I probably would’ve been totally done at that point and hobbled off.. you’re a true professional and trooper! Thank you Laura for all the hard work bringing us content in the dulldrums of winter! 😊♥️
Just love today's video. Starting to get ready for some beautiful spring time with such a beautiful plant. And thank you for the great advice today for all of us. Can't wait to see them in spring. They will put on a beautiful show. What a bad wasp to get you like that Laura.
Yay!! I’m doing ranunculus for the first time this year! 🤞🏻
So beautiful! Makes me wanna go outside and start planting. I just love Ranunculus and some other flowering plants! 🌸 As always Russell is the superstar of the show! 😻😻 I Hope you're okay from being stung by the wasp.
Ranunculus are so gorgeous, an underrated flower I don't hear many people talk about, love them. This has been such an inspirational video, I'm excited to add these to my garden. Russell is just adorable, I'm sure he gets in your way, he's beautiful! Hope you're okay after being stung, it looked like a hornet or wasp. Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. Have a wonderful week! Take care! Kathy x Ontario, Canada
So exciting to get some growth started! I'll be getting started here soon but I'm trying not to start things too early again!
Can't wait!
I have the same problem every year haha
New subscriber. Love your videos
Grew them for the first time last year. I can’t wait to get more in the ground this year. Your video was very informative.
Good morning. Oh, you scared me when you jumped, i didn't know what had happened! That looked like some kind of wasp to me! Amazed that you could retain your composure. The hazards of gardening are real. Hugs from N.C..❤️
Think that might have been a wasp... might be a nest somewhere close. Bees are not that aggressive to sting for no reason. Love ranunculus.❤️❤️
That’s what I was thinking, a wasp. That’s gonna hurt. I think I might check the stores for those and try my hand at growing them. Their beautiful.
Good Morning!🌞 Russell wants to help! It is amazing how those corms plump up when soaked! Looking forward to the blooms! When you least expect it, stuff happens like that bee stinging you! Ouch!! 🐱🐈🐝🩹🌱🌸
Hey Laura, check underneath all your tables inside your greenhouse. It’s been my experience that those darn bees will make a nest in those corners! Hope that helps. ❤
Eek! Sorry about that nasty wasp. Not something you expect in January! Geez. Another great video. Thank you! I love your channel!
i love ranunculus... the colors are so vibrant and their symmetry is so perfect! i like the idea of the whole raised bed garden full of them!! do it! 🥰❤ thanks for the video!! 🥰❤
I can’t believe you’re talking about this particular flower! Yesterday I bought some pink ranunculus at the nursery in the town I’m moving into soon here in central Calif/zone 9a. I just wanted to see what’s in bloom in January. And then I couldn’t help myself and bought three plants that matched together nicely like Laura would do and bought a pot to put them in plus soil. But I still live in my apartment and I really don’t have any place to put it but I couldn’t help myself.
Hi 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Good morning all have a safe and blessed day 🥰
You too!🌸
First time I see you getting bitten by a bee. Hope you do fine. I am glad to know ranunculus are perennials in my zone and so easy to grow. I can dare try growing them now. 🌬
Ordered some Ranunculus corms the other day, this come at perfect time to remind me what to do with them. Taking down my Christmas decorations and thinking how about in just 10 months we will start to take them out for beginning of Advent 😅
Just yesterday I was trying to remember a couple of things about presprouting ranunculus & went back & watched your videos from 2021 & 2022! Even things I've seen several times are still helpful. Thanks Laura!
So sorry about the bee. You even handled that with grace.
Hi 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
I bought corms in Jan 22. Life happened & I never got them planted. While waiting for this year's order I decided to take a look at them. Like you said, they always look dead anyway. I decided to pre-sprout them & see what happens. No way to know for sure yet, but I have high hopes. They plumped up well. Thanks to your videos I'm a lot better at "let's see".
That was a yellow jacket, not a bee! It would be a good idea to check the area in and around the greenhouse for nests before the kids or cats play out there again. Yellow jackets can sting more than once!
Gardening is new to me so I soak up everything you do! Thanks for sharing so much of your everyday life, family, friends and shopping trips-all interesting. I couldn’t”t really see clearly what you were stung by, but it looked like a wasp! It must like the warmth of the greenhouse.
Dang-those bites HURT! And she carry’s on like the trooper she is!!
That is a wasp not a bee. Hope your ok!? Check under those tables and behind that heater for the nest. That one looks young and there might be more hatching.
I ordered some Ranunculus. Never grow them before. They are so beautiful. I am so excited!
Hi 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Thanks for the inspiration, Laura. I'm a longtime gardener, but a first time ranunculus grower. My order has shipped and could arrive today. It's exciting to try something new, and I can't wait!
I am so sorry you were stung by the wasp. We have them making nests under out door tables, so I thought I would pass that on in case there is a nest under one of your potting tables. We just love your channel so much. Thank you so much.
I know you've talked a lot about growing ranunculus before, but I love the complete overview of your experience over the last several years. This is so helpful and I would love to see more deep dives in specific plants!
What fun. And such patience you have. Can’t wait to see!
These are some of my favorite flowers! The amount of petals on each one, gorgeous!!
I did dry mine last year. I'm in Oregon, zone 8b. Thank you much for these tips. I will give it a try and hope for good results ❤⚘🤗 . Hope your 🐝 bee sting is better! I got stung by a female wasp a couple months ago. I accidentally put my hand where she was hibernating. Ouch!! Took like 3 weeks to heal. 🤦♀️
Going into my third season growing ranunculus and anemones and I'm feeling very confident! Zone 5b :)
Michelle, I wonder when you begin your process. I’m in zone 5a and am considering trying this. I’d love to hear what your timeline would be.
@@susanhorn3910 I started presprouting mine January 25th, potted them up a couple days later, let them grow under grow lights until I planted them into a patio raised garden bed on March 14th (it was a random warm week in the 40s and 50s which ended up being perfect timing). I kept the bed covered in plastic since we still had regular snow and freezing weather except on the occasional warm or sunny day. A few days it was extremely cold (in the teens) so I covered the plants in a bedsheet as a frost cloth, then covered the whole bed in plastic... anemones bloom first so I had my first anemones at the very beginning of May and my first ranunculus bloom May 10th. This year I am going to delay the presprout until February, because even though I had growlights on the plants, they still got quite leggy and they definitely did not enjoy being inside those first few months... they really put on leafy growth when you get them outside in the cool weather, so I'm going to have them inside less and see how they go. Both the ranunculus and anemones were done by end of May because our temps jumped from 50s-60s to 80s almost immediately and stayed there for the several following months..i definitely would have had more blooms if we had a proper spring! Im in central Illinois if that's helpful
@@michelleh4588 thank you so much! I’m in northwest Illinois. This information is very helpful! With this strange winter we’re having, it will be interesting, I think, but I think I’ll try it. Have a great day!
@@susanhorn3910 you're welcome! Yeah it's currently raining and in the 40s here, which makes me feel like I can act like I'm in a warmer zone and get going on planting now..i just planted sweet peas in nursery containers and set them outside in a makeshift low tunnel I have... just an experiment to see how they go since it's so warm! I was thinking of doing the same with ranunculus to see if i can get earlier blooms with less effort. Ranunculus are so worth it, they are stunning as a cut flower! I got a 2 week vase life on most of them! Anemones too are so beautiful. They're all my favorites only second to dahlias!
@@michelleh4588 good luck! I’m jealous if your tunnel. I garden in a small corner plot, but I’m considering planting in a community plot for additional cut flowers. It intrigues me! Thanks again!
These are such exciting times. Can't bee'lieve that little bugger got you there, as always, love your composure. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful projects. Looking forward to seeing these bloom in the containers! That's going to be magical ✨️
This will be my first year trying them, can’t wait and thanks for all the helpful information!
This came at the perfect time! I’m trying to grow these for my wedding in June of 2024. Planning to do a trial of planting this year 😊
Laura, I really appreciate you going through the entire process of how and When you grow the flowers. Thanks, KEN for adding in the footage from the last few years! Its nearly a 'grow guide'. 😆
Can’t wait to see them all in bloom. They are so pretty in bouquets. Love seeing Russell, he is such a ham. He really loves photo bombing you. He has to be in the spot light. Love it love it. Thanks so much for sharing your process on how to grow those beautiful flowers

Laura aka the Queen of Saucer Resourcefulness !
Ranunculus are one of my favorites! Would love to see all of your raised beds full of them!! I actually remembered to put up some (small caterpillar) hoops last fall so I can get them out, protected earlier this spring. It will be an experiment since i have never been organized enough to remember to get the hoops in before the ground freezes! I usually plant my dahlias out as the ranunculus are slowing down, in the same bed. The tuber sprouts are short at first and as the weather warms the dahlias take off and the ranuncs go to sleep. My corms have had all summer to rest and energize and I pull them out once i have cut back my dahlias. Works as a space saver for me. So glad to see all the glorious color from previous years, make me want to pre sprout...must. be. patient!! 😛
Ranunculus is my favorite flower second only peony. The marshmallow is beautiful! I'm so sorry you were stung. You certainly handled it with amazing grace. Russell is such a lovable boy! It was so sweet watching him try to place himself under your hand.💛💙
Thank you Laura ❤ 2yrs ago was my first attempt to grow from corms and I left my water from my tap running slightly for 3-4 hrs to give them oxogen . And last year a fish tank pump to oxygenate the water . This year I will follow your advice . You have never disappointed us All with your expert tutelage. You’re an international treasure.💐👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🏼
I hope you're ok from the bee sting ouch. Russell is so loveable.
i love that you always acknowledge russell
Love watching You get these ready for planting, I have spring fever but still 3 months before we can do much. I did order Seascape strawberries last night, exciting!!
As for Ranuculas, they are a big 0 for me. I soaked and planted 20 corms. 4 grew, only 1 bloomed. The ones in the ground never grew, planted late April. They don’t like 7a here.
Same, so frustrating. zone 6b
I’m in the same zone and didn’t have great luck with them the past couple of years either, surprisingly. The ones that did grow got attacked by aphids, so I couldn’t cut and enjoy them 🤦🏽♀️
Thank you for being here for us!😊
This will be my fourth year of growing ranunculus and anemones in zone 5a, southern Wisconsin. I begin the process of soaking in late February. After soaking, I put them in moistened soil in 50 or 72 cell packs. I put them in the basement for about 2 weeks until I see sprouts. I take the flats outside on the front porch, covering them as needed. If I can get into the ground mid March ( depends if the ground is frozen or not), I use the same tunnels as you used last year and cover. I love sharing the blooms and got a very nice thank you from our vet's office last year. They are definitely worth the work!
Very informative and delightful. Thank you so much. Sorry you got stung by a bee in the middle of winter your cheddar is super adorable.
😅 Oh Russel, that shot of him looking down at the completed trays like, “it’s ok mom, I’ll look after these for you”! It made me laugh out loud😂😂
Love these! First time growing last year. ❤ Important to have a cat to oversee the project😂
Can’t wait to see them in bloom. Hope your leg is okay from being stung.😊
I love your energy❤ Spring here we come
Yes, I knew there was a plant I wanted to try out and forgot to order! Thank you for the reminder!
This & previous Ranunculus videos have been so very helpful. Last year I had never heard of pre-sprouting Ranunculus. This year I’m planting 500 en masse thanks to you.
Great job. Getting a jump start is going to be fantastic. They look gorgeous. Thank you so very much for for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I really like how Ken adds in past videos showing us what your referring to. I'm sorry that you got stung by that wasp. A wasp in January! That's bad luck for sure. Sorry that you got stung. Thank you Laura for sharing with us all of your knowledge!
Cheddar, so proud of himself, sitting behind you, licking his chops. Good job, great hunter 😻
What a shock to be bitten in January! Glad it wasn't one of the kids!! I bet there is a nest somewhere.
This totally got me excited for spring. I tried growing these last year. The foliage grew beautifully but not one flower 😢. I’m definitely trying Laura’s way of starting early and growing them on earlier. I’m in north Idaho zone 6b. Wish me luck. ❤
Ive had the same thing happen. I wasnt planting them out early enough. They really do shut down once the weather gets warm. I'm going to try tough love this year and put them out when it its colder (once they are hardened off) Good luck!
Crazy suggestion that really works for bee stings, I put a copper Penny on the site ASAP then cross with 2 bandages. 5 minutes later you will barely now you have been stung. Love, love, love your videos and social media posts. Thanks
So therapeutic watching you plant!
In Oklahoma 7a, our spring gets hot so quickly we have to plant ours in late December typically 😅 excited to see this year’s display
I love your Orange helper, pleased to see plenty of him 😀
I sure do love your Russell and Cheddar!
Right off the bat, you showed gardeners hiw to recycle/re-use. The plastic try was a definite 'thinking on your feet'. Love it!
(Where was spell check when you need it?🤪🙄)
I’ve had problems with slugs and snails for my ranunculus. I use Sluggo to control the snails.
They have a “rose-like” quality about their appearance, absolutely stunning! Great video as always
Trying these for the first time this year! Thank you!
💚 💜 👋 Omy Russell you are just a ham!! Yes Laura I'm so with you on them Marshmellow rannuculis I love the name and the color!! I left mine to long in there tray I didn't up pot them when I should have. So I'm gonna try again and have the hoops and cloth cover!! Thank you for sharing!!
I haven’t had much luck with them in Michigan-only about a third of mine bloom. I think we go from cold wet spring to summer too fast. Love seeing yours look so beautiful every year. 😊
I dug mine up last season, shook off the dirt and threw them under my potting bench. Completely forgot all about them. I brushed them off, soaked them and they're already sprouting. So much easier than overwintering Dahlias!
After watching you, I ordered some ranuculi. Thanks for all inspiration.
You know what’s better than watching Laura ramp up for the next growing season? Watching her with CZcams premium. My husband surprised me and the kids with it last night! No ads! It is glorious! Woohoo!
Don't you just love it! It makes watching movies so much more enjoyable without those irritating ad breaks.
Oh Laura- that was a wasp! Hope you’re doing ok? Cheddar was like “don’t you hurt my Mama!” ❤️ The ranunculus is one of my favs! So soft and beautifully colored.
6a NJ here. I was gifted orange ranunculus for Christmas and planning to start them in the house before moving to greenhouse when weather is warmer. It’s my first time with this flower, but a friend told me she loves them so I want to gift her some plants for her porch pots in spring. I plan on putting all of mine in pots on the back porch for the spring/summer to be able to save bulbs (chickens don’t attach porch pots). 😊 Thank you for any advice! ❤
Love your site because you havea Ginger Cat , handsome Russell and you are very informative and love and learn alot. New to Gardening. The Bee was saying thankyoiu to you .Thanks
Omg, how cute the cat guarding the bulbs😅
I love when she does ASMR in her videos!
