Notes
'Marissa' lily (Lilium 'Marissa') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, 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 moisture. The fragrant blooms open in peach, gold, and apricot from early to late summer. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and birds visit the flowers. Plants reach 24 to 36 inches tall, so they fit well in the middle of a bed.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Bowl of Beauty peony, and Little Lime panicle hydrangea.
