Pack of 5 Lent Lily/Van Sion Mix
Lent Lily, 1200 In English gardens by 1200, this is the dancing wildflower of Wordsworth*s poem and colonial gardens. It grows without care from Maine to California but is most loved in the Upper South, thriving in pastures and woods where homes once stood. It*s very early blooming, fragrant blooms, with a narrow gold trumpet and lighter petals that sweep forward gracefully. 10-12 inches Van Sion, 1620 A.k.a. *Telamonius Plenus*, this is *the most important of all doubles* according to expert A.M. Kirby in 1907. It*s also the double most often found at old homesites, multiplying vigorously without care. And it*s the most confusing! In its first year or in a perfect spot its doubling is neatly contained by the trumpet. Usually, though, the whole flower explodes into a wild froth of green and gold. 14-16 inches
