There is something enchanting about the elegance of a lily flower.

Yes, disappointing, but certainly not a loss!  I was getting excited right along with you, because the bud was much fatter than normal for gloriosoides.  A wide petaled variation would have been quite the breakthrough!

The small bulb bought last year Lilium nepalense will make a flower this year.
He brought forth its shoot at 50 cm from where I planted.

Axel, beautiful nevertheless...
Would be interesting to know if it is hybrid or not.

Dick, what a precious beauty you have!
I cant remember ever having seen a L. japonicum abeanum in cultivation.
Do you plan to harvest seeds from it/do you have a second plant of that type?

Hello Erwin
I have two plants of L. japonicum abeanum and I have tried to do pollination on them, but it is not success.
I am not sure that if they are the same clone because I get them from the same source, maybe I try to get more plant from another source.
I also have a young plant of the pure white form L. japonicum abeanum but I am not sure if I can bring it up or not. It seems difficult to keep...

and about the mainland form L. speciosum gloriosoides,
I keep it in a normal potting mix which can easily buy at market. It seems to mixed by peat, perlite, coconut fiber and small vermiculite.
I put a small inverted pot in the bottom of the pot to make an "air room" and then fill some ceramsite to enhance the drainage.
Lastly, put the soil and plant the bulb. I have to put the bulb in refrigerator do the vernalization as HK is not cold enough in winter.

I thank everybody for comforting me. It is a beauty I agree.
This perfect flower is 23 cm across so I doubt a wild one.  It is now still open without a flaw as the pictures show. Very wide and perfect symmetrical. The perfume is too strong for a room so it stays in the garden.

Axel,
It looks a lot like an old (1960s) oriental hybrid 'Cristabel' but most lilely a similar cross between L. speciosum and L. auratum,

Lilium nepalense. The label is faint but I think it came from Johnw in Nova Scotia many years ago.
