One of my favorites

From Oklahoma City, OK

These are just beautiful with brilliant, deep reds and white. The fragrance wafts through the whole garden. They grow to about 8' tall after three years (3' in year one, 6' in year two and then WOW!) and have multiplied to form clumps with lots of bulblets. I'd order more if I can ever catch them in stock. These bloom from mid-July to early August in Zone 7a (central Oklahoma) and are the last of my tree lilies to bloom. I pair them planted in front of 'Anastasia' orienpet lily trees (blooms in early July) for 4-5 weeks of solid lily bloom and scent.

Performs well even on the north side of the house, though it will stretch to the sunlight

i bet i have bought 50 of these lilies. they are spectacular. One thing I love about this site is that the plant you buy looks EXACTLY like the photo. Some websites exaggerate the colors on their to make them look good. Not here.. these are always as beautiful as they show you!! Highly recommended site for your garden!
