'Green Eyes'
Sewerzow's fritillary
Fritillaria 'Green Eyes', also known as Sewerzow's fritillary, is a charming spring bloomer that adds a touch of mystery to your garden. Its striking flowers start with a delicate purple blush on the outside, while the inside reveals a vibrant lime green, centred with a dark eye. These unusual blooms emerge from the ground in spring, with the flower cluster appearing first, followed by a gracefully lengthening stem. The pagoda-shaped flowers of Fritillaria sewerzowii 'Green Eyes' unfurl, creating an elegant display that stands out without being overbearing.
Standing at around 30–40 cm, Fritillaria 'Green Eyes' offers a distinctive look, perfect for adding vertical interest to borders or rockeries. Its unique colour combination brings a fresh, almost exotic feel to the garden, and the blooms last for several weeks, providing extended beauty as they develop and mature. Whether paired with other spring flowers or used as a statement piece, Fritillaria sewerzowii 'Green Eyes' brings both elegance and intrigue to any planting scheme. Plant it in well-drained soil, and this hardy perennial will reward you with its eye-catching, pagoda-like flowers year after year, adding a touch of spring magic to your garden.

Plant profile
Plant calendar
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.
