'Time Zone' - Orienpet Hybrid Lily
Product Description
Classification: Orienpet Hybrid Lily Bulb (USDA Zones 5-9, the colder climates of this range must provide winter mulching.)
Stock # 9062 - 'Time Zone' - Orienpet Lily Bulb
Our world has 24 different time zones but we only have one ‘Time Zone’ Orienpet Lily. This new Orienpet Hybrid introduction is good enough to grow in every one of them. We view in excess of 30,000 new seedlings every single year. From those maybe 100 are selected for evaluation. From there, 15 to 20 make it to market 8 to 12 years later. This does not include “samples” sent by growers and breeders in Holland that might have been selected out of several million seedlings and are in the final stages of production. Seeing so many "new" lilies each year for over 3 decades, we often feel we have seen just about all there is to see. THEN, something like ‘Time Zone’ comes along.
Those who know or have talked to Bob know that he is passionate about what he grows and works with in the field and that it takes a great deal to excite him. This is one of those “WOW” lilies even for Bob. The color is such a beautiful lavender/rose and is so clean, and the white center accent so pure, there simply is nothing else like it. Those that follow breeding lines and have watched ‘Robina’, ‘Vice Versa’, ‘Maywood’, and ‘Donato’ (and they are still all great garden lilies) will recognize the heritage behind ‘Time Zone’. She is not a replacement for her predecessors, but certainly is a refinement of their combined beauty. 3 to 4 Feet. July/August Bloom.
Bulb Size - Our standard for bulbs of this Orienpet Hybrid Lily Bulb cultivar ranges from Premium-size» (16/18 cm) to Exhibition-size» (over 20 cm). Click here for details.
