Lily: Orange Electric

Genus: Lilium.

Species: Lilium.

New asiatic lily introduced this year as they have been so successful in this cold climate for me so far. A nice bright bi-color flower that should bring a new and welcome change to the yellow and blue of the front bed. As I prefer here, I had them blooming in June, before much was going so they would have a long green season to strengthen and develop into a larger clump. Of course they were only five successful bulbs, four of which bloomed. Never know what you'll get up here. I do thrust they will perform like the others. Coming back strong and healthy.
