Fritillaria biflora

Sorry if this came through twice. It was blank when it arrived here.

My daughter and I started our flower trips last weekend. She
photographs, I enjoy.

We were thrilled to visit one of our viewing spots to find a field of
/Fritillaria biflora/ blooming heavily. I hadn't seen them before in
all my years of wildflower looking! There were hundreds of bulbs in a
sunny clay bank slope, from directly beside the road back at least 25
yards. What an Easter treat that was! This viewing area is on
privately owned land, and the owner discourages
trespassers. Marguerite
