These Color Parade blooms are 9-10 inches across

Measured with a yardstick after I took some photos. I think they should be taller but, in a way, it works to my advantage in that they didn't get beaten down by all the rain plus they are scattered and not in clumps like my Stargazers which support each other some. They do lean some even though they get more sun than my others.

These have just opened, and as they age, the pink turns more lavender. They've also multiplied at the base, very small, but I've got more blossoms per lily, just one per plant last year and some none. But they still don't look like gilberthwild's online catalog, will look up the specs again, more color variations in their photo, more ruffley on the edges and look more normal as to size.

Don't post much on this forum; love orientals but don't have any more room for them right now. Mine look huge, smell heavenly, and putting on quite a show right now. But the fragrance might draw more Jap beetles in, found a couple on them, and normally they don't go for lilies.
