‘Madame Butterfly’
‘Madame Butterfly’ (Johan Mak) is a wonderful new Lilium henryi hybrid with swirling, rightly reflexed ivory “butterfly” form flowers with an apricot gold throat, accented with lots of lacy white papillae (those beautiful raised “whiskers”) at the center. Flowering late in July and into August, it has graceful slender stems and lots of secondary buds that give it a long succession of flowers.
4 to 5 feet and taller
Hardy in Zones 4 - 8
