Notes
'Easy Dance' lily (Lilium 'Easy Dance') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. The fragrant blooms open dark purple-black and fade to bright yellow tips from early to late summer. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Blue star, Big bluestem, and Little Lime panicle hydrangea.
