LILY LOOKS™ TINY DINO ASIATIC LILY

Lilium asiatic 'Tiny Dino' is a compact and vigorous dwarf Asiatic lily from the Lily Looks™ series, perfect for adding a burst of fiery color to small spaces. This perennial typically grows to a height of 12 to 15 inches with a spread of 12 to 18 inches. In early to mid-summer, 'Tiny Dino' displays large, upward-facing, trumpet-shaped flowers of a vivid orange hue. The petals may feature subtle black speckles near the center, which enhance the brilliance of the main color. The blooms are set atop strong, sturdy stems that rise above glossy, dark green, strap-like foliage. Its dwarf, upright habit makes it a fantastic choice for containers, rock gardens, and the front of garden beds.

'Tiny Dino' loves in full sun to partial shade. Full sun is often preferred for the best flowering, though protecting the roots from the hottest afternoon sun is beneficial. It requires rich, well-drained soil that remains evenly moist; it is crucial to avoid conditions where the bulb will sit in standing water, as this can cause rot. Water regularly, ensuring the soil is semi-moist but never soggy. Once the flowers fade, deadhead the spent blooms, but do not cut back the stems and leaves until they have yellowed and died back naturally in the fall, as this foliage is essential for storing energy in the bulb for the next year's growth.
