FAQ
The fritillaria imperialis bulbs i bought have a really bad smell. Is there something wrong with them?
No, this is a natural characteristic of the bulbs and flowers of fritillaria imperialis. (a dutch nickname for the crown imperial is “stink lily”). But a useful side effect is that the scent of fritillaria imperialis keeps moles out of your garden.

Spring-blooming bulbous plants are those such as tulip and grape hyacinth, which are planted in the autumn and flower in the early spring. These are unlike the summer-flowering bulbous plants, such as this Oxalis or wood sorrel, which must be planted when the spring-blooming flowers are over, and which flower from July till late in the autumn. We can enjoy bulbs in the garden the whole year round if we plant spring- and autumn-flowering types.
