Fritillaria persica 'Adiyaman'

5 Mar 2019 • And we’re off! Thrilled to see these have returned. Now just to hope that they will flower again 🤞 #fritillaria-persica

Oops you’ve just reminded me I bought one...and have forgotten to plant it! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’ll do it today, along with the tulips and hyacinths I also haven’t planted! 🙄

🤣🤣🤣 Oh Rachel. You’re worse than me. Though I bet they do really well anyway 👍 @rachelbrooks

😆😆 hopefully they’ll provide a nice bit of late spring colour!

Well I did it...planted 140ish bulbs today...tulips, muscari, Daffs, Persian fritillary, Scilla, hyacinths...if any come up this year I shall be delighted!

Well done 👏👏👏 I’m sure they will. Maybe a bit late but better late than never 😊 @rachelbrooks

👍🏼😘

Isn’t she Laura. Very Persian Princess 😉 @columbiariver

Fab..😘

W😍w I wud love one !

Thanks Elaine @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Well it’s done this in just the few months since December when I planted the bulbs, so you don’t have to wait long Melanie 👍😊 @greenfinger14

Oh it’s stunning Jacqueline 💜 - mine decided not to flower this year which is a real shame but it was expected as I saw it come up. Stems looked to thin so I think bulb has split and divided. I’m gonna do what @hayleyaj suggested and dig up and separate to let them grow out a bit 👍🏼

This is my first time growing them Rich and I’m absolutely thrilled. Sad to hear about yours but does this mean you will get more plants in future? @richard.spicer.7906 @hayleyaj

You will indeed! Theyll produce more bulbs 😁

15 April 2018 • Look what I found earlier 💚💜💚

No i haven't, saw one on gardeners world and liked it.so I'm on the lookout for one.@womanonabike

I’ve never grown them before but got these bulbs at a flower market in Ghent in November and was stupidly happy when I saw that they had made it through the winter. I’ll copy you in to a link that Rich posted about them a while ago 😊 @richard.spicer.7906 @robert1961

Can’t wait till it opens 😊

I don’t think it will be long - they seem to grow soooo quickly. I’d love to see them on time-lapse 😊 @greenfinger14

N weather starting to get beta now so 🤞 I’ll see it soon !!

Looking good!! 👍🏼

I’m sooo excited! Have you been able to smell your crown imperials yet! 🤔😂 @rachelbrooks

I bet!! And ooh yes! Got a whiff yesterday! 😂 I don’t mind it...was expecting it to be vile! And I now have 8 of the 9 come up. And one of them appears to be a double! Woohoo! 🙌🏼 exciting times for us both! 😘

26 March 2018 • And we’re off 🚀
