Description
Transform your summer garden into a wonderland of flowers and fragrance with the help of this elegant Semi Turk's Cap Lily 'Lady Alice'. Producing multiple large blooms throughout early summer, each with attractive reflexed petals in a captivating shade of cream with a bronze flare, you’ll be head over heels with this sunset-coloured beauty. In true lily style, the flowers meet perfection with their intricate details, including a fanfare of rusty-red anthers on zesty lime-green stamens and a delicate brushing of burgundy flecks, not to mention that classic heady fragrance!
Flowering profusely throughout early summer, this generous lily will treat you to a long lasting feast for the senses. Its unique colouring makes it highly versatile and compatible with most styles, from cottage gardens to contemporary or tropical schemes. Like all lilies, 'Lady Alice' is a spectacular cut flower too.
