Double Oriental Lilium 'Lotus Elegance'

A beautiful double Oriental with mid pink petals fading to white at the centre. There is a light smattering of burgundy freckles too.

It is always exciting to offer these flashy, fragrant flowers. The petals unfurl slowly, parading their layers for up to three weeks, why do they last so long? It is their bonus feature, no pollen, which also means no mess!

This is special new breeding right out of The Netherlands. The world’s leading lily breeders, Vletter Den Haan. We are hoping to see more of these in the future.

Simply plant, fertilise and enjoy. Leave them in the ground to establish and they will bring you years of joy. Choose a humus rich, well drained soil in a sunny location. They will appreciate afternoon shade in warmer climates.

Keep your Double Oriental Lilies moist while in growth, and fertilise at the start of the season, then again as the flowers are finishing. Mulching over the summer will help to help maintain moisture levels in the soil.

They will take between 10-14 weeks to flower. A little faster in warmer weather. Double Oriental Lilies bloom a little later than single Oriental Liliums.
