Fritillaria uva-vulpis: new photo of the fox grape frit

They will survive and thrive if left in the garden year round up here to z 5b in Eastern Canada, if you give them a spot with good drainage. I left a beautiful four year old clump of them when I moved this winter. Wonder if I can go back and dig some up.

Dear All:
I've added a new photo of the fox grape fritillaria to the wiki. Take a
look at:

This species may deserve special attention from gardeners here in eastern
North America. Fritillaria in general are tricky here; few can be
considered true garden plants. Yet this one is both vigorous and - so far
at least - persistent.

Welches a household name are several months from ripening.
