Stargazer Lily
The Stargazer lily (Lilium ‘Stargazer’) is a spectacular hybrid Oriental lily celebrated for its large, upward-facing blooms in striking shades of deep pink, rose, and white, with distinctive freckles and a vibrant, sweet fragrance. Each flower can measure up to 6 inches across, perched atop sturdy stems that reach 2–4 feet tall. The lush, lance-shaped green leaves provide a graceful backdrop for the dramatic flowers, which bloom in midsummer and make stunning additions to garden beds, borders, and cut flower arrangements.Interesting Fact:
Stargazer lilies were bred in the 1970s to overcome the tendency of traditional Oriental lilies to have downward-facing blooms. Their “stargazing” upward orientation not only makes them more visually striking in the garden but also symbolizes hope and aspiration—making them a popular choice for celebrations and bouquets!
