The Lovely Day oriental lily is a fragrant variety that produces stunning pastel-coloured flowers. This flowering plant is a great representative of its cultivar group. Soft large buds unfold in high summer into exotic flowers that consist of snow white petals with pale pink stripes and dark pink spots. The spectacular Lovely Day lily is a great decoration of flower beds and planters like. Just one stem covered richly with large flowers will fill the vase and turn it into an elegant interior decoration. Tall, 80 to 100 centimetres high, oriental lilies constitute a wonderful addition to every garden not only due to their colour but their heavenly fragrance too. A perennial lily blooms more and more abundantly and delights with its unmatched charm every year after it has taken good root in the garden.  

Oriental lilies are rather undemanding and unproblematic in cultivation. These vigorously growing plants should be planted on sunny situations or in partial shade. Choose a fertile, permeable, deeply cultivated soil with high humus content for them. Keeping the soil moderately moist at all times is important. Make sure that the site does not water log. It is recommended to grow lilies in elevated ridges from which the water can freely run off. Lilies can be planted in spring or in autumn. Put the large bulbs that consist of fleshy scales at a depth equal their circumference. As vigorously growing plants, lilies must have enough space to develop freely. Recommended distance between the plants is 30 to 50 centimetres. Lily belongs to species that requires regular fertilizing and watering during the vegetation season. Mulching of the ground is also recommended.
