| Why
can flower color vary in Orienpets? Because
of their complex ancestry and the interaction of many
pigments, Orienpet lilies often have more intensely
colored flowers in cooler weather. Heat and bright
light can lighten their colors. The same stem of ‘Smoky
Mountain’ may have some flowers heavily washed
in red, with just a touch of gold near the edges,
and golden flowers with a light watercolor wash of
red. |
|
The “Orienpets” are
relatively new to the lily world, produced after
years of efforts to combine
the sublime beauty of the Oriental lilies with the more
garden persistent, heat tolerant and colorful Trumpet
and Aurelian hybrids.

‘Montego Bay’has flowers that blend gold and apricot, overlaid with a flush of rose deepening at the throat. Full sun and cool nights create the deepest colors, but all its subtle weather-engendered variations are beautiful! Wonderfully fragrant, too.
3 to 4 feet, mid July.
|
 |
‘Radiance’is a luscious, deep raspberry color that glows from within! Cooler temperatures will intensify the color. ‘Radiance’ has an elegantly sculpted form with its wide-petalled “open face” fragrant flowers with a touch of elegant recurve. What a color!
4 to 6 feet, late July/ early August.

‘Gloriana’ ( ) gives a dazzling display of honey-gold "sunburst" flowers with brilliant red "whiskers" and matching pollen. Its flower form, high bud count, aplendid inflorescence, and broad green leaves remind us of 'Scheherazade,' but 'Gloriana' has its own tale to tell in a totally new color! This is the most disease resistant of the golden OTs.
4 to 6 feet and taller, late July through early August.

‘Sarabande’ ( )
has rich crimson “sunburst”
form flowers with wide white margins. We love the way its

taller when established, early August.

has stupendous, long-lasting flowers of deepest glowing
velvety rose-red. The tree-like stems support
the graceful but enormous inflorescence of this winning lily! We had to use a saw to cut the

growing vigor as well as size and substance, flourishing
even in hot summers.
