A new variety of hybrid lily plant bearing large outfacing to upfacing flowers of excellent form and long persistence, both on the plant and as cut-flowers. The flowers of the new plant are particularly characterized by their large size and substance, their wide open-bowl form, their outfacing to upfacing orientation, their ascending pedicels, and particularly by their golden yellow coloration, with a flush of deeper gold to orange-gold along the basal midribs and with small, soft red to peach papillae. This combination is completely new in the Oriental and Oriental/Aurelian hybrid lilies. The variety is highly resistant to fusarium disease and shows tolerance of virus. The bulbs may be precooled and forced for cut-flower production under a wide range of light and temperature conditions. The plant is vigorous and is a good grower and propagator.
