Lily Zeba

Lily Zeba

75%
of respondents would recommend this to a friend
An excellent lily with elegance, style and a whole lot of pizzazz! Zeba dazzles in the landscape with its amazingly huge blooms that measure over 12" in diameter. Its greenish-white petals encircle a large, deep red center that really pops out in borders, feature beds and cutting gardens. Our garden staff raves about Zeba in cut-flower arrangements and bouquets. Your customers will, too. We suggest planting in groups to get the full effect of this unique lily. A great addition to any garden space, especially those frequented by butterflies or pollinators (they love Zeba's exotic coloration). For best results, plant in well-drained soil, but it will tolerate heavier soils.

Low germination despite starting in greenhouse others were great, both border and Stargazer, so feel this was fault of the bulbs

These are beautiful! They bloomed large bright flowers the first year I planted them. I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 just because they only grew to 3' tall instead of 4-5' as advertised. I'm hoping it's just because it was the first year.
