Fritillaria imperialis Rubra

Grande fritillaire très connue, qu'on hésite à présenter ici, parce qu’elle ne persiste pas bien dans un climat méditerranéen. La photo jointe, prise dans un jardin traditionnel de l'Aveyron, prouve que cette espèce peut durer longtemps dans un climat un peu plus frais. a traduire
