FAQs:

  • Where to plant fritillaria bulbs 
    Fritillaria are versatile enough to add charm to rockeries, borders, flower beds or pots – and they work well when they’re grown in groups. Like most bulbs, Fritillaria need well-drained soil (add a little compost to improve growth). For best results, plant your fritillaria bulbs in full sun or partial shade.
  • Fritillaria companion plants 
    Your fritillaria bulbs will be in flower at the same time as other spring bloomers, so they make a natural accompaniment to tulips, daffodils, alliums and hyacinths. They’ll also look striking against a backdrop of ornamental grasses.
  • Growing fritillaria
    Fritillaria are perennials and they’re easy to grow, needing minimal care once they’ve been planted. Fertilize in spring (tomato feed will work) and let the foliage die back naturally to save their energy for next year’s growth.  We hope you enjoy growing your J.Parker's fritillaria – easy to plant, easy to care for and easy to admire – an eye-catching addition to your spring blooms during April and May.
