Cardiocrinum giganteum syn. Lilium giganteum himalaicum

My Giant Lily is beginning to flower but it's a bit shorter than I was hoping it would be. Oh well!

Better luck next year 😊 bet it still looks lovely though

Wow thats tall though 👍

@fuschia it's about 4ft tall, they can reach 10ft or more.

Oh my goodness. I can see why you are disappointed then 😂👍

Golly it's massive 😀 and beautiful

👌📸👌

My Himalayan Giant Lily is growing well but not sure if this year will be the year that it flowers.

Tried growing it from seed but no joy

@joanboston I bought this as a potted plant a few years ago. It produces leaves each year, gets holes eaten in the leaves and then disappears until the next year. Hopefully one year it will flower.

I hope so, they are magnificent
