Lilium ‘Oriental Acapulco’ Bulbs

The large, vibrant blooms of Lilium ‘Oriental Acapulco’ will brighten up any garden border or summer bed with their hot-pink, freckled petals.

This striking colour makes them perfect as a focal point within a summer border, standing out from pots and containers or as part of a cut flower arrangement. When combined with their incredible fragrance, these lilies are sure to be a summer favourite.

Due to their upright stems, these lilies are ideal to plant among other perennials and shrubs with their roots in shade and their faces in the sun. The bulbs tend to prefer a loamy, well-drained soil and should be planted around 15cm deep and 30cm apart. Oriental lilies such as the ‘Acapulco’ tend to take approximately 100 days to bloom and should be planted during spring in time to flower between July and August.

Deadhead the blooms promptly and cut the dead stems back to ground level at the end of autumn.
