Notes
'Sita' lily (Lilium 'Sita') is a bulb for garden groupings, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun. Its double white flowers have buttery-yellow centers and red speckles. The blooms are fragrant, so plant the bulbs close to enjoy the scent. Oriental lilies prefer warmer temperatures and better drainage than Asiatics.
Pairs well with May Night salvia, September Charm anemone, and Big bluestem.
