Lilium lankongense (WO 7139) seeds
20 seeds per packet
This medium-sized lily species is perfectly hardy throughout the UK. It prefers well-drained soil and sun or part-shade; it will probably do better planted in the garden than in a pot so that it keeps its roots cool in summer. Produces a number of pink “turks cap” flowers with darker speckling in July-August. Originally collected at 3300m altitude in Xianggelila, part of Yunnan which is close to Tibet. It grows on sunny, exposed gravel slopes there which are covered by snow in winter, therefore probably best if not too wet during the winter.
