A truly stunning addition to the cutting garden, border or presentation bed, Big Smile features gorgeous 6" tricolor blooms of white accented beautifully with deep purple-red flames and yellow, star-shaped centers—a dazzling combo indeed. This Oriental lily is an excellent perennializer, dependably producing more lilies per stem each year. We suggest planting Big Smile where the out-facing flowers can be readily enjoyed by visitors or passersby. The flowers' lovely fragrance adds a sultry touch to evening strolls through the midsummer landscape. For best results, lily bulbs should be planted in full sun to part shade in well-drained soil, though it will tolerate some heavier soils.
