Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is an OT (Orienpet) hybrid, obtained by crossing Oriental and Trumpet lilies. The flowers have a wide cup-shaped or funnel-shaped form, reaching 20–25 cm in diameter. The petals are white, with a slight lemon-yellow or greenish tint permissible in the center of the throat. Dark orange or brown anthers provide contrast.

The plant is tall with an upright, sturdy stem; its height is usually 110–150 cm. The variety is summer-flowering, with blooming occurring in July–August; the forcing period takes 90–105 days. It is characterized by high resistance to diseases, including leaf scorch, and resistance to lodging.

It possesses good winter hardiness, corresponding to zones 4–5. The main application is professional forcing for cut flowers due to the long-lasting decorative quality, as well as use in landscaping, mixed borders, and group plantings.
