Description
Plant this curious character, Lily 'Mystery Dream', and prepare to be struck with fascination by its intriguing blooms! It’s so unusual, the petal-packed flowers could be compared with a waterlily or even an artichoke. With multiple flowers per stem, Lily 'Mystery Dream' brings a fresh highlight to a planting scheme with pale green petals, some delicately streaked with maroon, and some blooms featuring a surprise of deep purple petals in the centre. The flowers take their time to open out, giving you plenty of opportunity to enjoy them at every stage of the process!
Lily 'Mystery Dream' is a hardy perennial bulb which can be planted into free-draining soil in borders or large containers. Once planted, lilies do a good job in looking after themselves, sprouting at the right time and flowering in the middle of summer. This variety is not only a talking point in the garden, but also an incredible cut flower. The stems of Lilium 'Mystery Dream' syn. Lilium 'Mistery Dream'® are long and the double flowers last well—perfect if you like to snip a fresh-cut posy from the garden from time to time!
