Plant Lilium 'Fata Morgana' Asiatic Lily in early spring, and in midsummer, it blooms in large, 4- to 6-inch, bright yellow double flowers. Borne 5 to 7 per rigid stem, the flowers make excellent cuts for floral display. Although the flowers are not fragrant, double blooms mean no messy, staining pollen to worry about when bringing them indoors.
A Lilium Asiatic hybrid, commonly called lily or Asiatic lily, 'Fata Morgana' is a bulbous, herbaceous perennial with an upright, very vertical habit, growing 2 to 3 feet tall. A great container and garden plant, nice as a specimen or massed in mixed beds.
A cold hardy, easy-care plant, Lilium 'Fata Morgana' Asiatic Lily grows best in a sunny to partly shady location with rich, organic, medium moist, well-draining soil. Plants should not be allowed to dry out. Mulching will help keep the soil moist and cool. The plant is not pet friendly.
