Fritillaria Michailovskyi (Fritillaria michailovskyi (Fritillary))

I've planted these bulbs for the last 3 years and it's only 'this' year that they've come up out of the ground.
I love these :-))))

Try spelling the latin name without looking!!! LOL. It's very different to to F. meleagris, but I do like it. :-))

Spritz, i changed the spelling of this plant umpteen times because each way looked wrong !!!
Shouldn't have been so lazy and 'should' have looked up the spelling immediately !!!

I'm glad you got some blooms at last, I put some in a couple of years ago, and haven't seen them since LOL

Don't give up - has to be the moral of the story !
Keep at it every year !!!

Louise - I wouldn't have a CLUE how to spell it - I didn't even know the latin name...sorry if you thought I was having a 'dig' at you - I wasn't! :-(((((

I didn't take it that way at all, my friend, i know your sense of humour well and i just took it as you chuckling as you said it :-)))
