Plant Patent #16,246. If you love Lilies but don't have the space or the inclination for huge, towering plants, Mount Duckling® is the dwarf variety you have been looking for. Less than 2 feet tall, it is ideal for containers as well as the front of the sunny border, Lily garden, or other sun-soaked setting. The flowers are profuse, beautifully colored, and very long-lasting. Add to this its cold hardiness and stem strength, and Mount Duckling® is the logical choice for a dwarf Asiatic.
These blooms are dark pink with a smattering of deep red freckles near the base. Very profuse, they begin in early summer and continue through the hottest weeks of the year. Whether cut for the vase or left on the plant, they are quite long-lasting, thanks to improved stem strength and vigor. An improvement on the old favorite L. 'Cote d'Azur', Mount Duckling® is as dependable as it is beautiful.
Hybridized by Nicolaas Mak, this Asiatic Lily is hardy to -30 degrees F and very well-branched, for even more flowering stems. Give it full sun and deeply worked, well-enriched soil for years of unrivaled performance. Zones 4-9.
