'El Condor' - Easter Lily x Oriental Hybrid
Flower Description: 'El Condor was listed sold out the end of Sept. These bulbs were just harvested on 10/26 from our Oregon field. This lily bulb's thick petaled, medium to dark raspberry, perfectly formed blooms show off it's Lilium longiflorum breeding to perfection. Notice the elongated buds, just like an Easter Lily? (Where the flower attached to the stem, you can see the trumpet shape.) This is a "showpiece" lily, a most stunning addition to the garden with its lovely color and delightful fragrance. 4 to 5 Feet. July
From San Diego: I looked out my kitchen window this morning and asked myself what could the deep raspberry bloom with white edges possible be? El Condor is not as purple as it is in your pictures, but it is wonderfully dramatic! Note from Bob. 'El Condor' has shown a great deal of variance in color in different regions. One report and photo from South Carolina showed soft pink centers with the outer 1/2 of the petals being white. The customers comment was "nothing could be more beautiful". From the North East, it bloomed as a red-purple.
