Not available at any nurseries or seed shops as it seems to be a forgotten plant. These are old bulbs saved each year through refrigeration.

I have planted it several times to naturalize but it failed to flower in next year.I think it needs chilling hours which our climate does not provide.I love its natural Lilly fragrance.I have even four blooms per stalk.It was available at Pak Flora nursery Islamabad.
