'L. cernuum var. candidum' (Lilium)

Lily Bulb - 'L. cernuum var. candidum'Found only in the Diamond Mountain area of Korea, this rare beauty has basically the same requirements for sharp drainage as does its pink flowering cousin. If conditions are perfect, it will flourish, if not, bulb rot is quickly forthcoming. We have not grown or flowered this color variant but do have a line on some nursery grown bulbs for the future.
