Fritillaria Imperialis Aurora
OUT OF STOCK
Imperialis Aurora's magnificent flowers are commonly known as crown imperial, their golden circles of flowers reminiscent of an emperors crown. Native to the hot arid climates of Afghanistan and the Himalayas they prefer full sun and sandy, well-drained soil where it will naturalise and produce an increasing display year after year. At an impressive 90cm tall these bring height along with sceptical and an exotic flair to the back of the border or a cottage garden. Giant 18/20cm circumference bulbs supplied.

Fritillaria Imperialis bulbs can be planted at 15-20cm deep and 20cm apart in well drained/light and moist soil. When planting handle the bulbs carefully as fritillaria bulbs are renowned for being fragile. Can be planted in areas with full sun acc ess or preferably with partial shade, and can be left to naturalise in grass, borders or even cold greenhouses.
When established in the right environment you can easily begin to see fritillaria plants multiply. Plants are very hardy and are an excellent choice for border displays, rockeries or for woodland areas, where their elegant drooping bell-shaped flowe rs are likely to add that little something different.
