Heirloom Selection
Nodding pendant bell-shaped flowers, like tiny fairy hats, flaunt alternating petals in shades of soft olive green and burgundy. Pointed petal tips curl back and flare slightly at the bottom. The dangling flowers will start out almost entirely green but with age will sport their bicolor stripes. Fritillaria acmopetala is an heirloom choice dating back to 1874.
