A new variety of hybrid lily plant bearing large upright- facing flowers of excellent form and long persistence. The new hybrid is particularly characterized by a compact inflorescence of upfacing flowers of vibrant unspotted scarlet red color and with lightly ruffled tepal margins, and with buds also a deep scarlet red color. This combination is completely new in the Asiatic hybrid divisions of lilies suited to forcing and to mass commercial cultivation. The variety is highly resistant to fusarium disease and shows tolerance of virus. The bulbs may be precooled and forced into flower under glass out of season. The clone is vigorous and is a good grower and propagator.
