Fritillaria Raddeana Bulb
Delivery: End Aug to Feb
Fritillaria raddeana sports delicate clusters of soft cream to pale yellow flowers, adorned with a touch of lime green and topped with a distinctive crown of leaves.
Shorter than other crown imperials but equally robust, this rare beauty native to central Asia will be sure to bring admiring glances as its blooms gradually deepen over time; we particularly enjoy interplanting it with a selection of muscaris, narcissi and tulips.
Renowned for their bell-shaped flowers topped with a crown of green leaves, Fritillaria Crown Imperials have elegance and poise that are perfect for any garden type.
