Speaking of fragrant lilies, this is a Auratum platyphyllum, AKA "Golden rayed Lily of Japan".

Classification: Lilium Species (USDA Zones 5-9, colder climates w/winter mulch.)

(Breeding Origin: Japan) Large flowers up to 10 or 12 inches in size, waxy-white, with gold bands. These are generations removed from the more difficult species, and may be grown as any Oriental Hybrid lily. Provide well-drained soil and light afternoon shade in hot climates. Most have a variable number of red or brown speckles, but some may be totally unspotted - there are several clones in the mix. Slightly up or downfacing, fragrant blooms. 4 to 6 Feet. July/August bloom.
