Fritillaria collina Caucasus Endemic
As described in many floras, we found these Fritillaries growing in high, grassy Alpine meadows in this case alongside Gagea serotina (Snowdon Lily) - a most unexpected companion which I mostly see among rocks in Europe and Britain. Fritillaria collina is another plant sought by keen alpine Gardeners.
This rare Caucasus endemic can be found in Russia, Georgia and Armenia.
