The lily season can last for 5 or 6 months if you grow many varieties. My earliest this year were these stunning Martagon Lilies. I get so much joy bringing them in their pots into the porch, where I can view their hourly changes as they pop open, then unfurl into backward arching petals. Love them. I have had them side by side with Cliveas this year. A great colour match.

The flowers 'pop' open straight, then curl backwards as they age. Each flower lasts for well over a week. |
