Fritillaria acmopetala

Circa 1874, this Cyprus native has up to three, pendant, bell-shaped flowers per stem with olive-green and burgundy striped exteriors. Appearing like little upturned hats, F. acmopetala prefers rich, well-draining neutral pH soil. This deer- and rodent-resistant heirloom doesn't like being out of the soil, so plant the bulbs immediately upon receipt. You’ll need about nine bulbs per square foot. Bulb size: 6 cm/up. Full to partial sunlight. Bloom time in horticultural zone 5: April/May. Plant 5" to 6" deep and 5" to 6" apart. HZ: 4-8. Height: 20".

Fritillaria are The Art & Soul of Spring.

  • Information
  • Fritillaria
    Deer- and rodent-resistant Fritillaria have ivory, yellow, green, plum or two-tone pedant, bell-shaped flowers. Growing from 8" to 36" tall with a bit of a skunky scent, most of our Fritillaria were native to the western Himalayas and Asia Minor from 1575 through 1905. They prefer rich, well-draining neutral pH soil and filtered sunlight. A bit more finicky than other flower bulbs, these heirlooms don't like being out of the soil, so plant them immediately upon receipt. Bulb sizes depend upon the variety. Bloom time: April/May. Plant the large Fritillaria bulbs 6" to 7" deep and 8" to 10" apart. Plant the smaller Fritillaria bulbs 5" to 6" deep and 5" to 6" apart. Variable horticultural zones ranging from 3-8 depending on the variety.
