The sweet fragrance of the large, downward-facing blossoms of this plant would win you over. The lilies look appealing with a tad recurved petals that showcase their light green tips and deep yellow anthers. It is as good as a border plant as it is a container plant. The leaves are narrow and dark green while the stems are quite sturdy with some requirement of staking.
Having an average water requirement, it needs to be watered regularly but do not overwater. The plant should never stand in water.
Remove any dead and dying flowers for promoting new growth. Trim back to green leaves once the original leaves start to turn brown.
A balanced liquid fertilizer can be fed monthly. Mulch heavily in winter.
Cold Hardiness: Through zone 5.
