Notes
Fritillary (Fritillaria hermonis) is a bulb for rock gardens, containers, and raised beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Green bell-shaped flowers open from early to late spring on stems 4 to 8 inches tall. The blooms are small, so plant it where you can see it up close. A well drained site suits it best.
Pairs well with Alaska violet, Lily, and Karl Foerster feather reed grass.
