FAQ
The fritillaria imperialis bulbs i bought have a really bad smell. Is there something wrong with them?
No, this is a natural characteristic of the bulbs and flowers of fritillaria imperialis. (a dutch nickname for the crown imperial is “stink lily”). But a useful side effect is that the scent of fritillaria imperialis keeps moles out of your garden.
FAQSpring Alphabet
Iris reticulata
Iris reticulata are especially appropriate for use in rock gardens. Naturalising is possible. One drawback is that they develop many leaves during the flowering stage, diminishing an otherwise dramatic appearance. Try to make combinations with perennials to avoid the problem with the dead leaves.
