‘Midsummer’s Eve’
() Our newest hybrid from ‘Ariadne’ has a much deeper rose color, much later flowering time, and heavily “rose-pointed” perfect Turk’s-cap flowers. The first fragrant flowers open just as ‘Ariadne’ finishes, and bloom on the long, elegant stems for at least 4 weeks. How amazing to see the last of the ‘Midsummer’s Eve’ blossoms just as ‘Scheherazade’ opens! It was definitely the most popular lily with the visiting butterflies. 4 feet, late June through late July.

‘Bell Tower’ () is a totally new form in Orienpets! Its towering stems bear huge white bell-shaped trumpets, flaring perfectly downward to display their “brushed” peach-rose throats. In silhouette the spectacular flowers remind us of Daturas, except that these return each summer, growing ever taller and carrying more long-lasting, fabulously fragrant trumpets. 4 to 5 feet and taller, mid to late July.

‘Sunny Side Up’ () Truly a lily to lift your spirits with its upfacing bowls of sunshine with with broad petals and truly ruffled edges! This upfacing trumpet is deliciously fragrant, longlasting, and revels in the sunshine. As the flowers mature, the throat color deepens and the tips become a softer yellow. 3 to 5 feet, mid July.

Tetra ‘Makepeace’ () is a stunning new color combination, with enormous, lightly flared trumpets of intense apricot gold, edged in rose. Along with the robust stature andincredible flower size we expect in a tetraploid, ‘Makepeace’ embodies the grace, elegance, and serene beauty that inspired its name. Sweetly fragrant, too! 4 to 5 feet and taller, early to mid July.

‘Opulent’ () has tall, strong stems bearing huge dazzlingly white flowers with luminous golden throats, flushed with a soft halo of rose when the light is intense. The reverse of the flowers is soft rose, and the picture created as the sun shines through the flowers is one of stunning beauty! Dizzyingly fragrant! 4 to 6 feet, mid July. This lily can take the heat but abhors wet feet!

‘Secret Message’ () is an amazing yellow Orienpet with huge, fragrant, lemon-chiffon, wide-petalled, outfacing flowers, carried on tall, strong stems...and every flower on every plant is just a little differentfrom every other! The red-sketched whiskers and the “kaleidoscope” at the center of the flower both show every variation from soft suggestion to deepest expression! This delightful lily reveals a new secret with every opening blossom! 4 to 5 feet, early to mid July.
