Fritillaria

Fritillaria is a captivating genus of spring-flowering bulbs featuring nodding, bell-shaped blossoms with eye-catching patterns—from the checkered petals of Fritillaria meleagris (snake’s head fritillary) to the striking, crown-like clusters of Fritillaria imperialis (crown imperial).

These unique plants add texture and height to any spring garden, showcasing hues of purple, red, yellow, orange, and white. They flourish in full sun to partial shade with well-drained, rich soil, are deer-resistant, and tend to naturalize over time. Perfect for pairing with tulips and daffodils, fritillarias create stunning focal points and enrich your garden’s springtime charm.
