A stunning mix of colours from white to purple, Fritillaria meleagris, also known as 'Snakeshead' due to its unusual checkerboard markings, is a sure-fire winner.
Despite appearing delicate with bell-shaped flowers hanging and swaying in the wind with outstanding beauty, this is also remarkably hardy and will happily thrive in shaded woodland-like spots.
Ready to make a splash wherever planted, this mix is ideal for creating border displays or for naturalising in shady spots under trees.
Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.
Supplied as a pack of 30 bulbs, size 6/7 ready to plant out in autumn.
Which way up? Pointy end up, and if in doubt, plant on its side and it will right itself over time.
