Oriental Lily 'Star Gazer' (Lilium)

A newly opened stargazer flower on 23 July 2013 (if I could only send the aroma through the internet!)




My prize possessions!


These tend to multiply every year in my garden and are always a welcome sight.




Butterflies love this plant. It was progated from seed and bloomed the 2nd year. This picture was at 3 years. Comments to: [email protected]

Grows superb in sandy loam with full sun. Will not tolerate frost.

A gorgeous lily that I always look forward to seeing each coming year.

First bloom ever

I beyond love this plant (I love oriental lilies in genera) This is a lovely bicolor/pink one. Very spicy. Strong grower. This one is about 5 feet. :)

Simply beautiful, fragrant, very hardy; tall 38-42" strong stems. Excellent garden choice.

The Star Gazer stands out above the rest!

striking blooms that stand out every year - an outstanding contrast with hydrangea

Grew so tall had to stake it with rebar! August, 2010.

A favorite for over 20 years -- just have to smell them, too -- even though the pollen makes my nose orange! August, 2010.
