These special little plants grow wild across the united kingdom and often form carpets of flowers which gently nod in the breeze to delight any gardener. Although fritillaria meleagris is not considered originally native to uk shores, our climate provides just the right conditions for them if they are planted in moist, well-drained, humus rich soil. Flowering from march to may, these deciduous perennials have lance-shaped grey-green leaves and delicate, bell-shaped flowers. The star quality of this little plant is the strikingly unusual pinkish-purple chequered pattern which resembles snakeskin (hence the common name). These bulbs need planting out in autumn, ideally on their side to prevent water from collecting in the concave top. They will thrive either in sun or partial shade and need to be kept watered during very dry spells. As such they are ideally suited to the edge of a woodland or a wildflower garden. A hardy, bulbous perennial with an ultimate height of around 30cm.
