Notes

'Elodie' lily (Lilium 'Elodie') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. The double flowers are light pink with darker freckles, have a strong, sweet scent, and open from early to late summer. Deer tend to pass it by. Keep it away from cats, since it is toxic to them.

Pairs well with Cytherea peony, Annabelle hydrangea, and Rainforest Sunrise hosta.
