Smaller Stature for Mid Border
A versatile Asiatic Lily, its smaller stature is perfect for edging, containers, and gardens with less real estate. Cotton-candy pink flowers broadcast icy white centers that are splattered with deeper pink speckles as though glitter has been dispersed across their petals. Glossy green linear foliage is a perfect backdrop to these pink gems.

Lily General Information

Exotic looking, but not fussy. Asiatic Lily are the first Lilies (Lilium) to bloom in summer in a wide variety of bold or pastel colors. Will multiply quickly.

Lily Plant Care

Asiatic Lilies like direct sunlight and well-drained soil. Plant 6" apart and 6" deep. Remove faded flowers, but do not remove or cutback stalks until complete dieback has occurred in the fall, it could weaken the bulb. Divide plants every 3 or 4 years in spring when new growth emerges.
