Notes
'Jelubrista' imperial fritillary (Fritillaria imperialis 'Jelubrista') is a bulb for borders, specimen planting, and rock gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, loamy or clay soil. It grows slowly to about 35 inches tall with yellow blooms and tolerates drought. Deer rarely make it their first choice. J. Verdegaal bred it.
Pairs well with Munstead lavender, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Creeping juniper.
