LILY LOOKS™ SUNNY™ GRENADA ORIENTAL LILY


The Lilium orientalis 'Sunny Grenada' is part of the Sunny™ series which boasts vibrant, contrasting colors and compact size, making it ideal for container gardening and small garden spaces. This dwarf selection typically reaches a height of only 15 to 18 inches and blooms in mid to late summer. Its large, upward-facing flowers feature a striking combination of dark burgundy-red to crimson petals that are heavily spotted and sharply bordered with a bright, ruffled white edge. Like other Oriental lilies, it offers a strong, sweet, and spicy fragrance and is a fantastic choice for cutting.

For successful growth (Hardy in Zones 5-9), plant 'Sunny Grenada' in well-drained, rich soil in a location that receives full to partial sun. While the top of the plant loves the sun, it's best to keep the roots cool by applying mulch around the base or interplanting with low-growing perennials. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the blooming period, and fertilize lightly in the spring as the shoots emerge. After the flowering season is complete, remove only the spent flower heads (deadhead), but allow the stem and foliage to remain until they yellow and die back naturally in the fall to ensure the bulb stores enough energy for the next year's colorful display.

Lily Types:

  
Asiatic Lily
Asiatic Lilies are native to several areas of Asia. They are easy to care for and the earliest to bloom in the Lily family. Asiatics are fragrance free and come in so many vibrant colors - some even have double blooms! They thrive in all types of soil as long as it is well-drained (add some sand for drainage). These lilies multiply quickly and their bulbs can double every season.
     
LA Hybrid Lily
L.A. Hybrid Lilies were introduce back in 1992 and are a cross between longiflorum lilies (Easter Lily) and Asiatic hybrids. They get their trumpet shape and longer vase life from the longiflorum, and their warmer flower colors and upward-facing habit from the Asiatic. They have strong, sturdy stems for cutting and are perfect in containers, beds and borders.
     
Oriental Lily
Oriental Lilies are native to Japan. They are late bloomers - blooming when Asiatic lilies start to fade. They grow considerably taller than Asiatics and are perfect for cut flowers due to their thick, strong stems and heavily fragrance. Yes - they are very fragrant! Their leaves are wider and grows more heart-shaped and their flowers are star-shaped. Their bulbs multiply slower than Asiatic lilies and thrive in well-drained, organic soil.
