About the photo:
Private garden - Victoria, BC (July, 2001)

Beautiful white Oriental Lilies (this selection is 'Casa Blanca') are among the most intoxicatingly fragrant of flowering perennials. They perform well in a range of climates, preferring afternoon shade where the summers are hot.

Both bulbs and pre-started plants may be found at nurseries and garden centres. Oriental Lilies are also widely sold as flowering indoor container plants, available through the spring and summer months. Enjoy these indoors and save them to plant later outside in the garden!
