Fritillaria uva-vulpis
fox's grape fritillary bulbs
These fritillarias are often found growing wild in some very tough situations, so they are quite robust. It is important though that they do not suffer from excessive wet - particularly when they are dormant. The nodding brownish-purple flowers are tinged with yellow and these appear in mid to late spring.
How to care for Fritillaria uva-vulpis:
Plant (ideally on their sides) 10cm deep in clusters. Try to find a spot where they can be left undisturbed and make sure the soil does not remain waterlogged for any length of time.
