Abstract

The color pattern and silhouette of this new plant are completely new in the upright Asiatic divisions of lilies suited to forcing and to mass commercial cultivation. The plant is highly resistant to disease and shows high tolerance of virus, maing is an excellent garden plant, and the bulbs may be precooled and forced throughout the year for pot plant production. The clone is vigorous and a good grower and propagator.
