Fritillaria thunbergii.
Originally from China and Japan Fritillaria thunbergii do well in a woodland position.
This fritillaria is a medium growing frit and is perhaps one of the easier to grow.
Growing to almost 50cm Fritillaria thunbergii will naturalize fairly readily in a well drained position.
Nodding open bell shaped flowers in spring, some a tessellated green while other have flowers that are cream flecked with a brown, all make these an attractive addition to the garden.
