Crown Imperial bulbs are unusual and regal flower bulbs, that have an unusual crown of bell-shaped flowers. The flowers stand on thick sturdy stems and are topped with spiky leaves. Crown Imperial Rubra Maxima (Fritillaria Imperialis Rubra Maxima ) has stunning bright red coloured flowers.

Crown Imperials combine beautifully with tulips. Look for tulips that flower in the same colour, bold colour combinations or pleasing contrasting colours. We recommend: Tulip Red Riding Hood, Ballerina, Yellow Pompenette, Golden Apeldoorn, Tulip Prinses Irene, Parrot and Crispa tulips, Negrita or Blue Parrot tulips.

Tip: also a stunning container plant!! This is the most majestic flower that you can put in your spring garden. The strong odor of the roots will chase away pests like European moles and voles.
