Light Fritillaria cirrhosaSole pieno
We advise cultivating the the Fritillaria cirrhosa outdoors, since it doesn't fear cold temperatures. If necessary we can extract the bulbs from the ground, during the vegetative rest; after letting them dry we should place them in a cool, dry and dark place. During the most indicated season we can plant them again.We suggest to position the the Fritillaria cirrhosa in a sunny spot at least a few hours a day.

Cultivation Fritillaria cirrhosa
These plants have trunks or roots which store nourishment, originating bulbs or tubers. The Fritillaria cirrhosa is medium in size and 60 cm in height; in the spring it assumes a yellowgreenpurple colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form.

Fertilize Fritillaria cirrhosa
Bulbous plants use nutritious substances stored from the previous year for their flowering ; this is why usually the soil should be enriched, during planting, with a slow release or organic fertilizer. Later we must fertilize with a specific fertilizer for bulbous plants, every 15-20 days, starting from the moment in which the first flowers are withering.

Water Fritillaria cirrhosaTenere asciutto
Water sporadically, with 1-2 glasses of water , leaving the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when watering we suggest avoiding excesses, but to wet the substratum well. Let's act every 1-2 weeks . These plants don't need too much water; staying in a soil which is too damp, can easily cause the development of rotten in the bulbs.

Pests Fritillaria cirrhosa
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Mold Fritillaria cirrhosa
Locate in a deep and dissolved soil, with an accentuated drainage.
