Notes

'Lady Alice' lily (Lilium 'Lady Alice') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. The flowers are lightly fragrant and open from early to late summer. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit them. You can tuck the bulbs between existing plants and let the stems rise above them.

Pairs well with Garden phlox, Black Adder Bill Williams Mountain giant hyssop, and Mock orange.
