The Double Oriental Lily Miss Lucy, ‘Lilium ‘Miss Lucy’ Oriental Lily’, was the spring 2004 MGA Green Thumb award winner. This lily produces double fragrant flowers. This truly spectacular discovery was the first double oriental lily! ‘Miss Lucy’ is a unique, multi- petaled lily that doesn’t have any stamens; this is a great advantage for a cut flower! Stamens produce the pollen which can mar a table setting or accidentally stain an outfit. Cut flowers also last longer in vases when there are no stamens, so an arrangement of ‘Miss Lucy’ lilies can often live up to twelve days in your home! ‘Miss Lucy’ lilies can be container-grown or planted directly in your garden. Their soft pink color harmonizes with every border combination. Each year the plant will flower more profusely. A must for the gardener that wants the very best for their garden.
