Description

Raised from hand-pollinated seed obtained from true white parents. This is a gorgeous plant, one of the loveliest of the garden lilies and one that I esteem above many rarities.

Easily grown in a fertile, moist (not wet), half-shade or light shade in a humus rich soil, though like all lilies, it does not like mature trees and heavy, dry shade. A superb garden plant making a reliable display every June from buds that appear tantalisingly early in the season and seem to take forever to open!

Originally a seed-raised stock which almost always produces all-white offspring. The stock has been rogued and rogued and it is now pure as far as we can tell. There are also now vegetative propagations in this stock.
