Description
Orienpet lillies (lilium orienpet) are an American hybrid created from crossing the Oriental and Trumpet lillies. This combination has resulted in a lily that is considered to be better than either of the parent plants. The Orienpet Lily is disease resistant and easily tolerates heat but not direct hot sun, humidity, and cold. Preferring dappled sunlight or morning sun and afternoon shade, they come in bold shades of red, orange, burgundy, and gold but are also available in pastel shades of white, pink, peach, and soft yellows, and can be very fragrant! If you like a flower that will create a lot of conversation and second looks, this is the one for you! Blooming from mid-July to mid-August. The "Lifestyle" lily bears beautiful reddish- pink blooms which have a delicate white edge.
These outstanding flowers will amaze you with massive upward facing flowers, delicate fragrance and excellent relibility! Large sturdy stems do not require staking. They grow to a height of 3-4' the first year, 5-6' the second and to an astonishing 6-8' tall in the third year! Every plant bears 20 to 30 flowers after 3 years and keeps its fresh green foliage during the entire blooming period.
