Very nice, very nice!
Thomas sent me back on October some Frit latifolia and meleagris seeds, but they did not germinated to me, not a single one. I have watered them  and keeped the pots damp over winter, awaiting for spring to come, but they are still dormant. Is there anything else i could do for them?

Not much Michael, just be patient and wait. If the seed was viable in the first place (and from Thomas there would be no doubt about that), it SHOULD germinate, maybe in your autumn. Keep them cool and shaded through the summer.

Luckily it is, Maggy. After a week of scornful cold and wet weather when I had to run with scissors to prevent botritis from spreading the garden is recowering. Hardly had it started to recover when we had another blow: returning frosts on June, 8 which damaged (again!) Astilboides and some firns. But still a lot is in flower. Hope to post some more pictures. Thanks.

Fantastic pictures, Magnar. I have never seen ##2,3,5,6. Is the first one really carica? I have ever thought it should be yellow

Nice to see such a lovely selection of frits now that ours are all over.
I suspect the first one is not F. carica but F. crassifolia and you have just made a slip when writing the caption like I so often do.

I've been wondering about that myself too. I bought the bulbs  some years ago, and and they were labelled carica, but I guess I shall have to change that label. Can't remember now where they came from.

Thanks Magnar for giving us such a long season for fritillarias. We in the southern hemisphere never see the Chinese species so they have been a real treat.
