While inspecting the garden yesterday, I found these three beautiful flowers just standing there in front of me.
I have always loved the ‘British Garden” romantic kind of wild gardening.
Graciously organized by nature, as only nature can make it with many different kind of flowers. Everyone sort are welcomed!
My ex and I would always argue when the garden time was up. I welcomed every flower, which organized its beauty by itself. All the bumble bees and butterflies making their happy sounds.
While he wanted the garden green grass and trimmed. No weeds. No colors.
Two different styles. Two different minds.
But look at the picture, how magnificent the chess-squares are on the flowers. They are stunning perfect.
I had no idea about their name, but many came back. I learned this beauty in many different languages. Thank you everyone.
In Swedish Kungslilja (The Lily of King) In Latin and German, the flower is called Fritilaria meleagris (Schachbrettblume) And, in English, not so charming name, Snake Heads Fritillary.
One thing we can all agree upon….Mother Nature is fabulous.
That’s Amore!

These are fritillaria (probably spelled wrong) and these particular ones are referred to as “Leper Bells.” I have them in my garden, too. There are other names for them, too, like “snake’s head.”

I like the Latin name, such a gorgeous flower carrying the name “snake’s head”
I was being told they are poison. Thank you for telling me more about my “magic” flower.
