Notes

'Zeba' lily (Lilium 'Zeba') 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, extra-large flowers are over a foot wide and open from early to late summer. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Blue star, Little Lime panicle hydrangea, and Karl Rosenfield peony.
