This really is one of the most amazing varieties of fritillaria possible. It will display spectacular orange-red pendants in spring/early summer and like all imperialis varieties, it will have a very unusual group of leaf-like bracts on top of eachflower. They naturalise very well if left undisturbed in well drained soil. 20-24cm bulbs supplied.
