Roselilies or Lotus lilies are some of the most beautiful and fullest oriental lilies you’ll set your eyes on! The unique collective term “Roselily” has recently been coined in reference to these exceptional Oriental lilies for a few reasons. As these extraordinarily beautiful flowers open with their multiple layers of petals, they resemble both an Oriental Lily and a Rose.  They’ll perfume the air with a wonderful, mild fragrance while being the fullest flowering lilies you’ve even seen. Double oriental lilies bloom slightly later and longer than single flowering varieties. The best part about the flowers is they do not contain that obnoxious pollen that has ruined so many of our clothes.  This collection includes 2 each of Ciara, Wonder and Queen. Ciara has hot pink petals and a delicate white edge with a green throat. Wonder produces pink flowers with white edging and deep pink speckles. Queen displays some of the  softest orchid-pink flowers with a creamy-white throat and pink freckles. They’re also excellent for cutting where you will be able to enjoy these lilies for about 14 days in a vase.  The bulb size is 14/16 cm per bulb and they're mixed together and unlabeled in one bag.
