Roselily Anouska Double Oriental Lily

Roselily Anouska is one of Elke's Faves this season...here's why:

Imagine delicate, double-petaled blooms that make ordinary lilies blush with envy. The Roselily Anouska isn’t just a flower; it’s a masterpiece of beauty. But for me it isn’t just about the looks, it’s the fragrance and the fact that it’s practically maintenance-free! No diva demands, just a simple “water me and watch me bloom” attitude.

The alluring pink blush edging on each white petal will draw you in and the scent will make you linger. Roselily ‘Anouska’ is charm personified!

Double the petals - double the delight! Double Oriental Lilies are quickly gaining popularity and it's easy to see why! These flowers are amazing to grow and once you've tried them for yourself you'll be back for more! The flowers themselves can reach 10 in - 25 cm in size and their long lasting blooms make a wonderful cut flower. When planted in groups, their fragrance will fill the garden so be sure to plant a few in well placed containers near the front and back entrances, you'll be glad you did!

We suggest planting them in full sun or partial shade, about 12 in - 30 cm apart in a rather heavy soil with an ample supply of humus and good drainage. Remove faded flowers and do not cut back stems until autumn. Bulbs should not be lifted but left in the soil to bloom annually for many years.
