The Belladonna Tall White lily (Amaryllis belladonna) produces pristine white blooms on tall stems, each capable of bearing up to six fragrant trumpets that add elegance to the garden from late summer to early autumn. Its foliage emerges in autumn and fades by spring. These lilies thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, making them perfect for naturalising, garden beds, or large pots.
Once established, they are highly drought and frost-tolerant, enduring both harsh winters and dry summers. The attractive white petals make these lilies a popular choice for cut flowers, adding a sophisticated touch to any space.
