Lilium 'Enchantment' (Asiatic Lily)

July 2009

Planted 4 in April 2008. Location: Just north of master bedroom windows.

I love this lily! It's stunning. Even better, my mom told me that her mom gave her some of this variety of lily years ago. Since I got mine from my mom, it's now a special little flower to me. Hopefully someday I can give some to my daughter. Oh wait, I don't have one. Daughter-in-law it is, then. :o)
