Asiatic Lily

With so many different varieties, Asiatic Lilies are something special of their own.

There are over a hundred varieties of lily, each with its own unique characteristics. The Asiatic Lily has long, slender and glossy leaves complemented by three to six flowers per stem. Each flower blossom can open nearly five inches.

The flowers themselves often come in shades of orange, red, yellow, and white. Each type of Asiatic Lily has a distinct color and pattern. You’ll often see contrasting spots or stripes on the petals of Asiatic Lilies. These serve an essential function--they attract insects towards nectar sources and encourage cross-pollination.

This particular kind of lily does not have a scent which makes it ideal for centerpieces or tablescapes. Asiatic Lilies add personality and color to bouquets and are also splendid on their own!
