There are some flowers that simply make you gasp. They do not need to be large and showy – or even particularly brightly coloured. If they possess an innate elegance then that is quite enough to leave any gardener snake’s head fritillary is one such flower. It's native to Europe and western Asia of flowering plant in the lily family. Its common names include snake's head fritillary, fritillaria meleagris, chess flower, frog-cup, guinea-hen flower, guinea flower, leper lily (because its shape resembled the bell once carried by lepers), Lazarus bell, chequered lily, chequered daffodil, drooping tulip or, in northern Europe, simply fritillary. In Croatia, the flower is known as kockavica and is associated by some with the country's national symbol. It is the official flower of the Swedish province of Uppland.
