Lily - Double Oriental Roselily Esra

DESCRIPTION: Part of the ‘Roselily’ series, a breeding group we have been very impressed with, ‘Elena’ is by far the most uniform pink we have yet seen. Lightly spotted in the center with just a hint of yellow, the fluffy pink blooms of ‘Elena’ are as good as it gets. These bulbs are in very short supply and are coming directly to us from the breeder/grower for 2012 spring delivery as our crop is not up to numbers yet. Classified as “large flowering size bub”, these range from 14/16 cms and all have flowered in the past growing season. This July bloomer carries the familiar Oriental lily fragrance and grows from 3 to 4 feet when settled in.
