An unusual Turk’s Cap lily native to Japan, Lilium leichtlinii bears pendant, golden-yellow flowers adorned with maroon spots with distinctive, swept-back petals. The blooms are borne on slender stems, each supporting up to 20 flowers, creating a radiant display from July to September.

Lily leichtlinii may look exotic, but it’s a remarkably hardy and dependable perennial that rewards you year after year. Mature bulbs can produce up to 20 dazzling golden blooms and will readily naturalise in borders to form larger colonies each year. Its tall, elegant stems and striking flowers bring effortless drama and structure to border and container displays—and their long-lasting blooms make stunning cut flowers for up to two weeks indoors. Ultimate height: 80cm to 120cm (31 to 47in). Ultimate spread: 40cm (16in).

Growing Information

Lilium leichtlinii prefers a moist, free draining, acidic soil that is rich in organic matter. Prior to planting, add plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil to give your lilies the best start. When growing lilies in containers, use a loam based compost such as John Innes No.2. Lily bulbs should be planted at a depth of approximately 3 times their own height and 15cm (6") apart. Planting deeply helps to protect the bulb during particularly hot periods. Choose a sheltered, sunny position where lilies will grow with their heads in the sun and their roots in the shade. Provide supports for tall varieties and protect from lily beetle.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.
