Description
24-28" tall x size" wide. The strong slender stalks of Sugar Love Lily (Lilium asiaticum) are topped with clusters of blooms for long-lasting color. Sugar Love Lily has stunning, bicolor blooms with vibrant pink tips and white centers. A low-growing lily perfect for massing near the front of mixed borders. Easy to grow in moist, well-drained soils, provide full sun to partial sun for vigorous blooms. Plants naturally multiply over time, gently clumping to increase the number and strength of flower stems. Water regularly during active growth when rainfall is inadequate. Harvest stems of Sugar Love for flower arrangements when the lower buds show color and just begin to open. Clip the anthers to prevent messy pollen from staining table cloths. Do not remove more than one-third of the stem when cutting as plants need energy produced by the foliage to replenish bulbs for next season.
