Persian fritillary

Fritillaria persica

Each individual flower on the stem has its own stalk (peduncle), and the tip is still producing more buds while the base is in bloom. It's a raceme.
(Unrelated to the rest but always good to know: Some Fritillarias are edible but this one is not and could make one pretty sick.)
