Lilium Rosemary North

Lilium Rosemary North
I got this 30 years ago from an RHS auction. I arrived late and missed it but a lady very kindly let me have one of hers. Then I almost lost it because I was moving home so often and wasn't paying attention, but I caught it at the last possible moment - rooting a couple of scales. Now I have enough to sell some.
Lilium Rosemary North
A brilliant adaptable lily here, producing plenty of amber coloured nodding recurved flowers, sprinkled with brown toward the centre, on 3ft stems every year without any help at all.
