I have lilies with 5' stems, but the lilies we grow here are winter hardy to about zone 4 and none of mine produce more than one stem per bulb unless it is an anomaly.

As long it is happy in its location, it will give you at least 2-4 weeks of happiness each year and maybe encourage you to try out some other liliums if you haven't already.

If I'm not mistaken this is an orienpet. It grows to about 5 feet. I think it is in its fourth year. Bloomed around July 6th last year. Can you smell the perfume?
