26th July '10,,Lilium 'napalense'

Is this Cardiocrinum?

No Meanie its Lilium 'napelense'....Can grow to 1m and like Cardiocrinum its native to the Himalaya....I think Cardiocrinum is the tallest of them all....:>)

Ah, the angle of the shot made it look very tall!
I had Cardiocrinum - it grew to about 8 foot in the year that it flowered. The bulb dies after flowering though.

Im sure that was a wonderful sight Meanie....Thanks San....it is a lovely flower....
