Lilium 'Purple Marble'

Stunning, recurved, carmine petals with a deeper purple blush and freckles. It has a very soft fragrance. The petals have really great substance, standing up to the weather. The blooms mainly pendent and rather moreish.

It is hard to sing their praises enough! These flowers have a refined elegance that is hard to surpass. They grow to a handy height and produce plenty of flowers. Each bloom is around 15cm across and is outward to slightly pendent, coy in their beauty. What is more is they are on show for up to four weeks, which makes them terrific value.

Choose a humus rich, well drained soil in a sunny location. They will appreciate afternoon shade, especially in warmer climates. Simply plant, your Pearl Asiatic Lilies, fertilise and enjoy. Leaving them in the ground to establish and they will bring you years of joy.

Our Tip: Plant a variety of lily types to enjoy longer lasting colour in the garden. Asiatic and L.A. Lilies flower first, followed by the species and trumpets/Christmas Lilies and Orientals are the last to bloom.
