FRITILLARIA. Including Rhinopetalwm, &e. 
genus is distributed over North temperate regions. 
The Fritillarias are uncommon bulbous subjects, and not 
well represented in gardens. Evyen our native Snakesheads 
This 
(F. Meleagris) (Fig. 385, for which we are indebted to 
Messrs. Veitch and Sons) seldom find a place, though 
they are nice as to colour, 
and graceful to a degree.

Fritillaria—continued. 
To see them at their best they should be naturalised. 
For the rock garden F. aurea and F. pudica are two of 
the best. One of the kinds needing special treatment is 
the beautiful F. recwrva, which succeeds in an entirely 
sandy soil.
