One of the most intriguing spring blooms, Fritillaria meleagris charms with its unique checkered petals in shades of rich purple and white. Often referred to as Snake’s Head Fritillary, this nodding flower prefers cooler, partially shaded areas with moist yet well-drained soil. Originally native to European meadows, they bring a naturalistic, woodland feel when planted beneath trees or beside ponds. Once established, they’re reliably hardy and a subtle showstopper in any shade garden.

Planting & Care

Fall Bulb Planting Guide

  • Flower bulbs are a low-maintenance and rewarding way to add colour to your garden.
  • Fall-planted bulbs thrive when exposed to cool soil temperatures. They can be planted anytime from late September into January.
  • These bulbs lie dormant through winter and burst into bloom in the spring and early summer.
  • When you receive your bulbs, be sure to read the planting instructions included with each variety. Planting depth can vary depending on the size and type of the bulb, as well as how tall the mature plant will be.
  • As a general guideline, bulbs should be placed with the pointed end facing up and covered with about 15 cm (6 inches) of soil.
