Blackbirds have been at it again with the labels.
Can you identify this fritillaria please

It is Fritillaria uva vulpis Mick.
I try not to leave more than 1mm of labels showing ... less obvious to blackbirds, less sun damage to make the labels brittle.

I write the plant code on the underside of the label also. When the top breaks off by frost of "brittleness", I have a copy down in the pot. It has saved me from a lot confusion :)
