Planting and Growing Information
Plant Fritillaria Meleagris bulbs in fall, approximately 4 inches deep and 3-4 inches apart. Position bulbs on their sides to prevent water collection and reduce rot risk. They thrive in USDA zones 4-8 in partial shade to full sun locations with consistently moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Expect beautiful blooms in mid to late spring at heights of 8-10 inches. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong returns in subsequent years.
