Plant description
One for the connoisseurs and collectors, this rare and unusual fritillaria is actually one of the most robust varieties. In early spring, it produces small clusters of nodding, bell-shaped flowers, that are topped with a jaunty tuft of leaf-like bracts. They are ideal for pots and containers, or plunged straight into a sunny border with well-drained soil. Perfect if you are looking for something out of the ordinary.
