This glowing white variety of Snakeshead fritillary is almost more coveted than its distinctive chequerboard cousin. Their grass-like foliage lends them a wonderfully ‘wild’ air.


Looks equally stunning in pots, where you can appreciate their slender form and pendulous flowers at close range. Will naturalise finding its preferred spot in a field or lawn.

Care Tips

Can be naturalised in grass but make sure you don't cut the foliage until June/July. Avoid disturbance and never cut them right down because they may stop flowering.
