Carbonero Orienpet Lily Bulb
Truly a stunning masterpiece! Deep Raspberry Red, silk-looking flowers. The buds on these are also a dark red color. Just magnificent! Carbonero is an Orienpet Lily which will grow to over 36 inches or taller once established.
Orienpet lilies are cross bred between Oriental and Trumpet lilies making them extremely fragrant and much taller than any other lilies. They produce huge blooms (from 4 inches to 8 inches across) and large-sturdy stems to support the massive blooms. Because they can grow to heights of over 6 feet from their third year on, staking is recommended so they will not fall or blow over. In most cases, they can withstand hot or afternoon sun and will adapt to most soils very well. However, they are best grown in morning sun and afternoon shade. They may take a little extra care but are well worth the effort!
