Definitely not red). Can any one help identify it ? * pink buds after coloring-up * upfacing flowers (1a) * dark brown pollen * pink, or purple pistil * lower half of flower petals are yellow with brown spots, upper half is deep pink. spots generally stay on lower half with only a few above this point. * petals are not ruffled but slightly recurved. * nectaries have no color (white rough lines only) * high bud count * dark green shiney foliage with distinct midrib vein This is NOT an LA lily (e.g. not Kiss-Me-Kate, etc). It is an asiatic lily and the petals are not as thick and waxy as LA lilies. Thanks for any help you can provide. |
