Notes

'Parade' lily (Lilium 'Parade') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. The fragrant yellow-orange flowers have brown spots and bloom from early to late summer on stems 39 to 47 inches tall. Butterflies and hummingbirds visit the blooms. J. de Graaff bred it.

Pairs well with Bridal Bouquet peony, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Phantom panicle hydrangea, and Knapweed.
