Fritillaria Meleagris and Alba Mix | Checkered Lily Bulbs Mix
The whimsical blooms of fritillaria Meleagris are enchanting! The nodding head looks like an angular tulip hung upside down, and painted with a complex geometric pattern in deep rosy purple and cream. The pattern is so like that of a checker board, can't you just imagine a couple of fairies pulling close to a bloom for an impromptu game of chess? If you plant it - they will come and castle! :)
We love these dainty blooms and have paired them with the white version in this fritillaria checkered lily mix. As resistant to deer as they are attractive to fairies!
