Fritillaria meleagris alba
Commonly known as The Guinea Hen Flower, The Checkered Lily or The Snake’s Head Fritillary, F. meleagris alba is the white-only selection out of F. meleagris, an heirloom species dating back to 1575. It has pendant, bell-shaped, green-veined ivory-white flowers with grass-like foliage intermittently spaced on its slender stems. This deer- and rodent-resistant naturalizer is native to the western Himalayas and Asia Minor, and prefers rich, well-draining neutral pH soil and a bit of light shade or dappled sunlight. Mature plantings can grow taller than its usual 8” height. You’ll need about nine bulbs per square foot. Bulb size: 5 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: 3-8. Height: 8".

- Information
Miscellaneous Narcissi
Not to be overlooked, these varieties are in their own little group because they don't quite fit into any of the R.H.S. divisions.
All Narcissi tolerate a wide range of sunlight from full sun to semi-shade. Varieties with pink cups should be grown in areas of filtered sunlight. Narcissi prefer well-draining soil, hate to get wet feet and love to be fed with a 4-10-6 or 5-10-5 granular organic flower bulb fertilizer three times a year. Allow the foliage to thrive and die back naturally without braiding or premature removal. Bulb size: 12/14 cm, unless otherwise noted. Bloom time in a horticultural zone 5: March/April. Plant 6" deep and 6" apart. Horticultural zones 5-8. Height: 6" to 14", depending upon variety. Narcissus classification: Royal Horticultural Society Division 12.
