What you say about Casa Blanca is very interesting to me. Many years ago I took a White Flower Farm offer and got 12 for a ridiculously low amount. I put them right next to the house, behind some bayberries (where there is tons of gravel) and they thrived for years.

Then the bayberries got too tall, an I started moving them to locations around the yard. One by one they petered out. Last year I only had two left, so I put them in pots (I put dozens of lilies in pots, since I was moving). One basically keeled in the pot. I put the last one, as I did 70 other lilies, in zip lock bags with seed starting mix over the winter. Only one lily became a pulpy mess in the bag - Casa Blanca.

If you want something extremely similar , but with s a shorter stem, try Crystal Blanca, a relative of Casa. It is a lily I have had, and moved, several times over the years. It's tough, and a champ. I've had it since 2007. It is carried by B @ D Lilies. I have ordered from them for years.
