Also known as 'Fawn Lily', this very special form of Dog’s Tooth Violet, Erythronium 'White Beauty', is a real superstar of a plant. Easy to grow and thriving in shade, it illuminates a dull space with its gorgeous, large creamy-white blooms on tall, upright stems. Each slender petal is recurved like a lily and is blotched with eye-catching little red markings in the centre for that subtle dash of colour.
The perfect plant for covering bare ground beneath a tree or for plugging the gaps among shrubs in a woodland area, these starry marvels will grace you with their presence every spring, each year naturalising and gradually spreading into a beautiful established swathe. Undeniably popular for their reliable and easy-going nature, the award-winning Erythronium 'White Beauty' will do its thing with the minimum of fuss.

Check whether your varieties prefer sun or shade, then choose a sheltered spot with well-drained soil. Most spring bulbs also grow well in containers.
Remove weeds and loosen compacted soil. Improve heavy ground with organic matter and horticultural grit. For containers, use peat-free multipurpose compost and ensure good drainage.
Plant at the depth recommended for each variety, as their requirements differ. Position shoots or pointed ends upwards. If the correct direction is unclear, plant them on their sides.
Follow the recommended spacing for each variety. Planting in clusters or informal drifts creates a natural display, but avoid placing them directly against one another.
Water after planting if the soil is dry. Keep containers lightly moist but never waterlogged. After flowering, allow foliage to yellow naturally before removing it.
