Lily 'Red Flash'

Radiant and dramatic, Lily 'Red Flash' is a scene-stealer in any summer border. Each magnificent bloom unfurls in a velvety red, flecked with darker speckles and, on occasion, brushed with a soft white edge that seems to catch the light. This Oriental lily’s generous size and luxurious scent make it the sort of flower that stops visitors mid-step. Whether rising elegantly from a pot or glowing among other late-summer blooms, Lilium 'Red Flash' brings both colour and poise to the garden—an effortless way to add a little theatrical flair without ever feeling overdone.

Plant Lily 'Red Flash' somewhere you can enjoy its fragrance up close, perhaps beside a path or near a terrace where the evening air will carry its perfume. Its tall, sturdy stems make it a fine candidate for cutting too—one or two in a vase fill a room with scent. Like all Oriental lilies, Lilium 'Red Flash' thrives in rich, free-draining soil with its roots shaded and its head in the sun. Treat it kindly and it will reward you year after year with an encore performance of sumptuous, ruby-red blooms.
