'L. philadelphicum' (Lilium)

With a wide range throughout southern Canada, the Midwest and as far south as New Mexico, the 'Wood Lily' is found growing near deciduous trees in free draining sandy loam. Difficult in the garden, winter protection from rain is required to succeed. The upright flowers vary greatly in color but are generally orange to red with black spotted yellow centers. This has been one of the most challenging lilies we have attempted in the species garden. Photo shown is of our first ever bloom.
