Although I think this Frit is a form of F meleagris alba I am not sure about the 8 petals.
These are very large flowers so what do you think.thanks bye Ray

Yes, meleagris alba, but an aberration. Here is another.

Perhaps the first 2 pics are F. davisii?
and I'd like to be sure this is F. crassifolia ssp. kurdica, grown from seed FGNZ.

Hi Lesley,thanks for your input,although the frit flower above is very similar to F davasii the leaf arrangement appears to be wrong.
I think my F meleagris alba? looks more like the real thing than yours :).bye Ray
