PLANTING & GROWING INFORMATION

Plant these unique bulbs in the fall, placing them on their sides at a depth of 3 to 6 inches and spacing them 3 to 4 inches apart—roughly two bulbs per square foot. Well-suited for USDA zones 5 through 9, they thrive in humus-rich, well-draining soil that stays evenly moist. Fritillaria flourish in areas with full sun to partial shade and will gradually spread when growing conditions are favorable. Look for their distinctive, nodding flowers to bloom from mid to late spring, providing lasting seasonal interest.
