Gentner's Fritillary blossom. Plant description: Fritillaria gentneri is a perennial herb arising from a fleshy bulb, with one to twelve deep red to maroon bell-shaped flowers produced on a single, erect, 40 to 70 centimeter tall flowering stalk. The leaves of reproductive plants occur in whorls along the stalk, while vegetative plants produce a single basal leaf varying in length from to 29 centimeters. Most reproduction occurs through asexual production of small rice grain bulblets on the surface of mature bulbs – these detach from the mother bulb and develop into new individuals. In g
