Use and Care Manual

Lilies are one of the truly great garden plants, and they are

beloved by gardeners everywhere. Their beauty, diversity,

extended season of bloom, graceful stature and overall

reliable disposition reﬂect the fruits of hundreds of years of

selective breeding. In Chinese, the word ‘Lily’ means ‘forever

in love’. The Lilium family is so large, varied, and complex that

it is challenging to describe them in short. Lilies are deer and

critter resistant. Plant them just about anywhere - borders,

beds, cutting gardens, perennial gardens,

pots and containers.

About This Variety: Lilium Big Brother lives up to its name. This oriental trumpet lily produces fragrant, yellow flowers on sturdy stems to support the weight of the oversized flowers. It’s known for its huge 6’ tall tree like stems and great big giant 14-15” fragrant flowers. By the third year they will normally attain their maximum height and flower size. Great choice for the cut garden or for creating that curb appeal to wow the neighbors. Good naturalizer returning for years to come.
