I was thrilled to find Lilium tsingtauense one spring, for the first time, at Funkia Gardens (WI). Being many years ago, I didn’t know that these krinkly, undulating leaves were the natural growth pattern of the species. I thought the plants were virused. Now that I know it’s the way they are supposed to be, I find the texture very agreeable, inviting and interesting. Unfortunately, as the leaves mature they “flatten” into normal leaves.
