Lilium Asiatic 'Red Highland' starts from a 12 to 16 cm bulb that grows and forms narrow, long laced-shaped leaves and blooms very fragrant 7” deep red flowers that will come back every year. These gorgeous red highland Asiatic lilies grow 40-48 inches tall and produce five to eight vibrant beautiful blooms per sturdy stem.
The bright and vibrant red blossom of red highlander is great for back borders, garden beds, bouquets or cut flowers. They will bloom from early summer to midsummer. When the leaves start to wilt, just wait until they have died down in fall since they help provide nourishment to the bulb for the next season’s bloom. It is advisable to cover them with mulch before the winter weather comes especially in colder areas.
