More commonly known as ‘Henry’s Lily’ in reference to the Irish explorer Augustine Henry, who discovered it, lilium ‘Henryi’ is an award-winning species lily.
Recipient of a prestigious award of garden merit from the RHS, this hardy and reliable cultivar produces up to 30 large, gracefully-poised, nodding flowers. The scented blooms are deep-orange in colour, with textured maroon speckles. Recurved petals expose elegant long green stamens and rust-coloured anthers, giving an exotic appearance.
Dark green foliage and black stems add to the enchanting look of this spectacular lily.
A profusion of large, cranberry-red flowers are produced in clusters on species lily ‘Scheherezade’ during August each year.
The exotic-looking, nodding blooms appear as though their petals are gilt-edged, with a glowing, yellow-gold margin.
Plant the bulbs near the middle or back of a sunny garden border, where the sun will illuminate the magical blooms, making them appear to glow.
This fine, regal-looking lily will bring grace and architecture to your garden. Grow it where the beautiful fragrance will be appreciated as you pass by.
