Life in Newburgh on Ythan

A two headed snake

Our small patch of snake's head fritillaries Fritillaria meleagris  have now set seed. One of them was double headed, with two flowers on a single stem, and now has two seed heads. I gather that this is a relatively rare event; I must remember to collect the seed and try to determine if they breed true.
