DESCRIPTION
Lilium 'Lankon' is a hybrid lily, derived from Lilium longiflorum and Lilium lankongense, known for its unique downward-facing, trumpet-shaped flowers. The petals are primarily white, adorned with deep violet to purple speckling throughout, creating a bold contrast. This lily blooms in mid-summer, typically from June to July, and its flowers are both fragrant and visually appealing.

The plant forms an upright, clumping growth habit with elegant, arching stems that carry the large flowers above the foliage. Lilium 'Lankon' thrives in sunny to partially shaded areas with well-drained soil. Its vivid blooms make it an excellent choice for cutting gardens, where it can be used in floral arrangements. It also works well in borders and containers, adding a touch of grace and color to gardens during the summer months.
