Summary[edit]

Description

Another Paul Christian offering. This Central Asian species is related to Crown Imperials and the like and has a similar growth habit. Like many Fritillaries though it specialises in shades of brown and green (think chocolate mint ice cream.) An expensive experiment but there are hints all over the place in the literature that it could be a good garden plant given a sunny raised bed and really gritty soil, which is what it has here. Don't all jump to congratulate me though - it's not too hard to get a Fritillary to flower staight from the nursery (if you can keep the slugs off.) Next year will be the test. Will it persist?

The houseleek there is a form of Jovibarba sobolifera I think. I really like the long red pointy leaves.
