Lilium (Asiatic Group) Pink

Common name: Asiatic Lily Pink

Description: This elegant bulbous perennial produces large, upward-facing flowers in soft pink that create a romantic display in early to midsummer. The delicate blooms are held on strong stems above attractive lance-shaped foliage, bringing gentle colour and exotic appeal to borders. Asiatic lilies are easier to grow than Oriental types, thriving in a wider range of conditions and flowering earlier in the season. Perfect for adding height and soft colour to herbaceous borders, cottage gardens, and containers, these lilies make excellent cut flowers. The soft pink colour brings romance to planting schemes and combines beautifully with whites, purples, and silver foliage.
