Oriental Lilies

Oriental lilies are known for their fragrant perfume, blooming mid-to-late summer. Stargazers are easy to grow and do best in full sunlight. They have a fast growth rate and should be planted in full sun in well-drained loamy or sandy soil.

• Pimento only gets 24″ tall and is a nice choice for pots and patios.

• Stargazer is another variety that is a good choice. The flowers are a deep pink and rose blend. They have beautiful blooms.
