An older post was quoted in part as follows:
"Since Fritillaria bulbs replace themselves every year, their original
orientation in the ground will be lost anyway."

This is absolutely not true. Fritillaria bulbs are true bulbs and are
not annually renewed.

Not everyone agrees.

I quote (Ian Young):

"Classic bulbs such as Narcissus are perennial adding extra layers each
year all fritillaria bulbs are annuals, replacing themselves completely
each year with a new one that forms at the base of the growing stem."
