| The Oriental lilies
prefer acid soil and temperate, moist summers. Provide
these by shade, mulching, or container culture if
necessary. Their enormous flowers, heavenly fragrance,
and late summer bloom time are worth the extra efforts! |

‘Miss Lucy’ slowly unfurls a plethora of fluffy petals, creating a cloud of soft pink, white and apple green. It takes a full week for each fragrant flower to expand fully, displaying up to fifty petals per flower! The longest-lasting of all the Oriental lilies. Unique!
3 to 4 feet, late July to early August.

‘Aktiva’ strikes a perfect balance between color and light. The luminous blooms are peony pink and glow with vibrant color in any weather. Sweet fragrance!
4 feet, August.

‘Tiger Woods’ is surely a champion, with enormous wide-open flowers with a dazzling deep, deep crimson band centered on each petal. In cooler weather, a flush of rose washes over the flower as well, making the red-band even darker; and the whole flower is liberally sprinkled with gorgeous crimson dots. Wow!
3 to 4 feet, August.

‘Arabian
Red’ is one of the finest rich
red-purple Orientals available, and we're pleased to
be able to offer
it to
you. Our ultimate test for lilies of this color: How
does the color change in the sun and as it matures? These
lilies were beautiful in the vase for over a week, and
throughout our warm summer weather they have glowed in the garden,
retaining their rich color and sweet fragrance!

feet, August.

‘Sapporo’ The
first time we saw ‘Saporro,’ we brought home
a stem that had been grown in a glass house, and each
flower was more than 8 inches across. This lovely,
fragrant white Oriental is of medium height, but two-thirds of its sturdy stems are decorated with huge blooms!
4 feet, late August.
|
 |
‘Black Tie’ has rich, deep lipstick red flowers trimmed with bright white. It is elegant, eyecatching and richly fragrant!
4 feet, August.
|
 |
‘Sorbonne’ is our favorite lavender pink Oriental, a recent winner in the Popularity Poll! We love its superb, wide-petalled fragrant flowers with pure rose-pink coloring and crisp white margins.
4 feet, August.

Lily Gardening in Containers
Lilies love growing in containers! They come in a wide variety of heights and sizes and can be planted alone or with companion plants. They work beautifully on decks and patios, and are wonderful in spaces large or small. If your garden is prone to underground animals that love the sweet taste of bulbs, containers are a great way to thwart them so that you can enjoy more lilies!
Lilies in containers have most of the same requirements as lilies in the garden: well-drained soil, half a day (or more) of sun, and sufficient watering.
Protect your container and the bulbs within from severe winter conditions and rapid freezing/thawing.
Complete cultural instructions are sent with every order. |
