Award-winning Fritillaria pallidiflora (Siberian Fritillary) is a bulbous perennial boasting up to 5-6 nodding, pale buttery-yellow, bell-shaped flowers, 2.5 in. long (4 cm), usually faintly checkered brownish-red within. Blooming in mid to late spring, the delicate flowers are complimented by broadly lance-shaped, bluish leaves scattered up and down the slender stems. This lovely Central Asian plant has proven to be quite a reliable garden plant. It is at home in naturalistic plantings in the woodland garden and can be grown in a raised bed amongst the roots of deciduous shrubs with some protection from excessive wind and rain.
