To cultivate Fritillaria meleagris 'Alba', plant bulbs in autumn, positioning them approximately 5-8 cm deep and spacing them 10-15 cm apart. Water thoroughly after planting and maintain even soil moisture throughout the growing season, especially during dry periods. Apply a layer of mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Allow the foliage to naturally wither and die back after flowering to ensure bulbs store energy for the next season's blooms. With its delicate beauty and natural charm, Fritillaria meleagris 'Alba' will enhance the tranquility of any garden with its timeless appeal.
