Received a "Mona" from my green-thumb mum several years ago, repotted it in a larger container after the first year's bloom and it has been expanding and reblooming ever since. Mona's pot lives on the deck near the door so that incredible scent can follow me into the house. Endearing and enduring!

One of the absolute best lilies. It is short and therefore excellent for pot culture. It is extremely handsome and very reliable. Its flowers are huge for the plant size. The coloring is wonderful.
