The lily 'Storm of the Century' is an original creation by the American breeder Carr from 2001. This variety stands out for its expressive, ruffled dark-purple petal color with a rich blackberry eye and matching edge, accented by a delicate white border along the edges. The center of the flower is adorned with a green-yellow throat and white radial rays, giving the flower a unique depth and contrast. The flower diameter reaches 13 cm, and the plant height is about 70 cm, making it a noticeable element in the garden.
This lily belongs to the 'Night' group of dark lilies, characterized by its rich and deep coloration. The variety is distinguished by its high tolerance to various growing conditions and low maintenance, enabling successful cultivation in different climate zones. A special advantage of this variety is its excellent winter hardiness, capable of enduring temperatures down to -34°C without additional protection, significantly expanding its usability in regions with harsh winters.
Thanks to its decorative qualities and resilience, the 'Storm of the Century' lily will be an excellent ornament for any garden. It is suitable for creating vibrant floral compositions and can be planted individually or in groups. Care for the plant requires minimal effort, making it an attractive choice for both experienced gardeners and beginners.
