"This very special lily is a true gift of Mother Nature. Apricot Fudge spontaneously appeared in a greenhouse planted with Lilium Salmon Classic.
Till the moment she started to bloom everything looked normal, but once the flower buds started to swell her shaped changed into a ball instead of her normal long shaped flower buds and the stigma and anthers to grow out of the unopened buds.
When the bud started to show colour, they curved into elegant curls and it became obvious to the grower that he was facing something very special in his greenhouse. Of course this extraordinary lily was held apart and grown into a commercial stock:
Apricot Fudge. An eccentric but stunning lily."

The Lily is a real recommendation for the garden, beautiful plants that bloom for weeks and, if they are happy, come back for years. If you have no experience with lilies in your garden, you can always look at our site under Flower bulb information / Lilies. Here you will find an extensive description of How to plant and care for Lilies.
Planting Lilies:
Lilies need fertile, well-drained soil with a thick layer of humus. They like moist, but not too wet soil. Plant them between October and April, even during frost. Lilies can withstand cold well, provided they are not exposed to too much wind and rain. Dig a trench 10-15 cm deep, loosen the soil and add fertilizer or humus if necessary. Plant the bulbs with the point upwards and cover with soil. Keep 25-30 cm distance between the bulbs, plant them in groups of three or five.
