Fritillaria persica

For a touch of the exotic and dark, dramatic color, look no further than award-winning Fritillaria persica. This native plant to Turkey displays strong stems that hold 15-20 deep purple, bell-shaped blooms each. Not only are they pretty to view in the border or garden bed, Fritillaria persica repels wildlife pests with its uniquely pungent scent, while attracting beneficial pollinators at the same time. Fantastic in containers or as an unusual ground cover. Tolerates juglone from black walnut trees.
