Fox's grape fritillary

These unusual fritillarias are known for their resilience, often thriving in harsh conditions in the wild. However, it’s crucial to ensure they don't sit in wet ground, especially during their dormant period. In mid to late spring, they produce nodding flowers in a brownish-purple hue with subtle yellow tinges. Plant clusters of delicate Fritillaria uva-vulpis in your borders, beds, or a naturalized meadow area to enjoy a stiking display of nodding, bell-shaped blooms that will grace your garden every spring.
