'Lilium martagon album'
(Species / Wild Lily)
The pure white form of this long lived species, the flowers are often a little larger and the plant overall being a little more vigorous than the type. At home in any well drained garden loam, it also appreciates some lime added to the soil each year. As with the type, it can suffer from botrytis and should be sprayed occasionally with a good fungicide recommended for roses.
