Time for a update. Been here for 5 years now so the garden is no longer brand new. It’s still windy, it’s still stony and I still have so many plans.

Fritillaria imperialis

So Mai Tai was a contender but I’ve wanted to grow orange crown imperials for so long and this year I did. So here’s my personal favourite #bestofapril #fritillariaimperialis

Pleased to see this back for a second year, especially since I couldn’t save it from the heat last summer and it just shrivelled! #crownimperial #fritillariaimperialis #newgrowth

Keeping my fingers crossed for it flowering @angiie, it had such a poor end last year 🤞

I have only got the one @angiie @richard.spicer.7906 testing to see if they do okay here, last summer was unusual so this year will give an idea of whether to go ahead with more.
