Can anyone tell me -can I grow SnakesHead Fritillary in pots?? I live in Cumbria, so fair amount of rain,-- tried when we lived in a different area where the soil was very heavy clay. Of course, lost them. They fascinate me. Marg |

I would imagine the difficulty of growing them in pots is keeping them sufficiently damp in winter without getting frozen or being waterlogged and going rotten. My grandmother used to grow them in her moist soil in NE Cheshire on the edge of the peak district, so I don't see why you can't grow them in the ground in Cumbria, provided the ground it is sufficiently water-retentive, and drains adequately in the summer. |
