Pretty pink and white flowers with a delicious, honeysuckle fragrance. They provide valuable colour, emerging as if by magic as the summer perennials are fading.

They make a top choice for gardens or pots, and if you can bear to pick them, they also do very well in a vase.

Belladonna Lilies are super tough bulbs and are virtually fool proof, making them a good choice for beginners and an easy one for experts. They naturalise, or perennialise with ease too – meaning you don’t have to lift them every year, simply plant and enjoy!

You can rely on these tough growers for late season colour (Feb-Mar) and a sweet, honeysuckle fragrance. In average conditions up to four flowers will open on a stem; in ideal conditions (and from a mature bulb), up to 15 can bloom.

Belladonna Lilies are also known as Amaryllis Lilies or Naked Ladies. They are commonly called 'Naked Ladies' because their flowers emerge without the modesty of foliage. The glossy leaves surface late autumn to winter and make a useful garden feature in their own right.

Belladonna Lilies thrive in any well drained soil and love to bake in the sun. Plant them in a sunny spot, water to establish, then you only need bother if rainfall is low. They become dry tolerant once they are established and love a dry summer.
