Abstract

A new variety of hybrid lily plant bearing large clusters of flowers each of which is particularly characterized by its starry form with fluted tepal margins and a unique yellow/white/yellow color pattern, wherein the yellow appears as a flush at the central base portion of each tepal which is generally of an unmarked white color, the yellow color also appears at the tips of the tepals and on the edges of the tepal margins, and the flowers are of excellent form and long persistence both on the plant and as cut flowers. This combination is completely new in the upright Asiatic divisions of lilies suited to forcing and to mass commercial cultivation. The plant is highly resistant to disease and shows high tolerance of virus, making it an excellent garden plant, and its bulbs may be precooled and forced for cut flower production producing a vigorous clone that is a good grower and propagator.
