Zelmira - Orienpet Hybrid Lily
You save $4.00 on quantity of 6 bulbs over “each” price on this variety.
Spicy Scent. 3 to 4 Feet. Late July / Early August flowering.
Available out of Holland a couple years back, jobber companies (those that just buy and resell) jumped all over this lily. We thought though upon first seeing 'Zelmire', this color is much like 'Satisfaction' which had a tendency to fade badly in 90F+ summers. We decided to wait for our own field trials. We have been very pleased with the performance and how color fast 'Zelmira' has proven to be. Blooming a rich salmon to coral pink in color, the color does lighten to a softer pink coloration, so you can have buds open in all different shades and is far more color fast than previous "peach" Orienpet lilies. 'Zelmira' has a lovely yellow accent in the flower petals that blend in perfection to the overall look. Expect 3 to 4 feet, but with care and feeding, 4 to 5 feet are more likely. Late July flowering. Quite Fragrant.

Classification: Orienpet Hybrid Lily Bulb (USDA Zones 5-9, lows to -15 F. Winter mulch recommended in colder climates)
