Lily Bulb Description

Lilium bulbiferum 'Umbellatum' was a selection made in the mid 1800's in Australia. Our original stock came from Mr. Moto Shimizu of Japan in 1980. We worked with 'Umbellatum' for 5 or 6 years and though a strong grower in itself, it was not giving us any promising results in hybridizing, either as a pollen or seed parent and so was discontinued.
