Easter lilies can be saved provided they are kept in a refrigerator from May till September (same chilling method used for lilliums).

These trumpet shaped flowers are quite fragrant.

From where are the available in lahore?

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.

Wow. How many blooms does one get generally?

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.

True a forgetten plant but if remeber correctly theu perform very well in pots multiply rapidly and cime back year year after yearwith increasing blooms if u have an extra bulb you should experiment and try keeping one in 14 inch pot

Is that a grafted hibiscus at the back??

Yes a cutting from a Hibiscus variety brought from Mauritius has been grafted.

Nice, i lost all my grafted hibiscus to a terminate infestation a few years ago. You should post a grafting tutriol would be very helpful.
