Fritillaria
Fritillaria is a genus comprising of a huge range of species. Most feature delightful, nodding bell-shaped flowers and are happiest in well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Varieties such as meleagris and michailovskyi will gradually naturalise if left alone. Lily Beetle can be a pest to Fritillaria.

Easy to grow and care for, they will bloom with the minimum of attention and are great for cutting too.
