White lily with a nice stiff stem

14 years ago

What has been your experience? Has anyone had great luck with a particular variety that they can suggest? Don't want to have to stake them, and the whiter the better! :)

After researching online these are some varieties I like.... do any fit the bill (as far as not being floppy?)

Bright Diamond

Endless Love

Casablanca Lily

Album Lily

Trying to find a nice variety of different bloom time so I have blooms from June to Sept.

Thanks!

Most lilies stand up quite well if they get enough sun. Casa Blanca is a lovely lily and so is Regal album. Can't speak to the other varieties though. One of my favorites is White Butterflies for it's long bloom period. Most years it's in bloom for a month for me. It does take a year or two to settle in and really show it's stuff.

Casa Blanca does not need staking. It has a huge stem. Mine was about 1 inch in diameter this year.
