Was sold to me as Pink Easter Lily

Check at B & D under 'Pink Heaven'. I'm not sure if that's what it is.
Pirl, it sure looks like Pink Heaven. I got it locally, supposedly the nursery owner got bulbs from an old, old estate. I will ask more questions as PH seems to have come out in 2006 or 2008. Anyway, I'm pleased w/ the plant. I will post here when I get a better story behind my bulb. I know this person doesn't really buy bulbs from wholesalers, most of hers are from old homesteads, except her amaryllises.
I hope it multiplies like the reg. Easter lily. thanks for your input.
A very long time ago I bought pink longiflorums and we had them many years before we lost them all one winter. The same thing happened with the huge amount of Easter lilies we had.
Enjoy them, Nery!
what a shame u lost them. I smelled my pinkie this morning and frag. was definitely reminiscent of regular easter lilies. When I get the scoop I'll post it here.
vossner,
I bought what appears to be the same lily many years ago from Dutch Gardens. It was sold to me as "Casa Rosa", lilium longiflorum. It is nicely fragrant and grows to about 24"-30" here; seems very hardy. Foliage is about the same as shown in your pic. For what it's worth I hope this is helpful.
yours does like exactly like mine.
That's where mine came from as well!
I almost bought them years ago. TBGDN is right - it is indeed Lilium longiflorum Casa Rosa. Lovely.
