Description
The beautiful wood lily can be variable in height; it is easy to identify by the up-facing hot-orange flowers with purplish-brown spots. It flowers from late June to August when it is frequently visited by hummingbirds and butterflies!
Other uses: Bulbs were used as food and medicine by the Native People. Also, it is said that the pollen can be dusted on various dishes, something that I would definitely like to try.
Germination: You can find a detailed overview of germinating lilies on the Pacific Bulb Society website.
I tried and vouch for this procedure I found described in Scottish Rock Garden forum: it involves freezing the seeds for 2-3 weeks first – read more about it on Scottish Rock Garden forum Here – it works 100%.
