Snake's head fritillary are much-loved for their nodding, bell-shaped flowers, which rise above the grass-like, grey-green foliage. Ideal for naturalised planting schemes, they are often seen partnered with ornamental grasses, but they will also look charming in mixed borders or patio pots.
In each collection you will receive the following:
- 10 × Fritillaria meleagris var. unicolor subvar. alba: A gorgeous sight in mid- to late spring, when the pretty white flowers appear on slender stems. Grows to 30cm.
- Humans/Pets: Ornamental bulbs - not to be eaten
