Martagon Lily Revealed (Lilium martagon (Common turkscap lily))

So pleased I discovered the lily hidden in foliage against a variegated Pyracantha with white flowers, had to have another photo with a dark background in place. Keep off Lily Beetles!

Stunning great photo. We never use to get lily beetles I was told they came in with their eggs inside the soil of other lilies from other countries.

Lily Beetles are not choosy. Gave up on Lilies several years ago, for the LB reason. But I have hidden this Martagon well, so far!

I grow lots of different varieties some dont get touched and others are like a buffet to them ...

Pests target the Turks cap 'Fairy Morning' first, the move onto another for pudding.
