How to Plant French Ranunculus: Soak the claws in  water for 3-6 hours so that they plump up and re hydrate. 
 
For best result pre sprout the claws :  Fill a flat-bottom seed tray half full  with moist compost. Place the claws with teh tenticles pointing downwards  onto the soil and cover them with 1 cm of soil over the top. Leave the tray in a cool place  at  4°C–10° for 10 to 14 days checking them every few days, making sure the soil is moist but not soggy and remove any corms that show signs of mold or rot. ( They may need protection from rodents as they love to eat them )
 
Once the white rootlets start to appear  and the first sets of leaves start to form they can be planted in their final locations. Plant  in pots or beds with plenty of  organic fertilizer 15 - 20cm appart.
