Fritillaria imperialis' Orange Beauty'! Its chunky stems are stained copper-brown, and also under the enormous spring flowerheads. These flowers are rich, intense, burnt orange to brick-red. The bells are downward-facing, and in the centre of each flower are long, powdery cream stamens. It is a strong plant, with shiny green foliage and punk-like topknot of leafy bracts, both of which catch and reflect the light.

Although some fritillarias may be subtle little beauties, there’s nothing shy about Fritillaria imperialis'Aurora'. Crown Imperial fritillarias wear a crown of pointed green leaves at the tips of their tall flower stems, and just beneath that, the crowning glory of their rich orange, pendulous blooms provides a striking display of colour. Thanks to its regal stature, Fritillaria imperialis 'Aurora' is sure to stand out.
