Lilies in June
Doesn’t get much better than this. I have six pots of Orienpet and Asiatic lilies on my patio and a flower bed full of Regale species. My pride and joy are the Black Dragon hybrids, which are 7ft high.
The smell at dusk is take-your-breath-away sweet. I’ve been under the weather today, but had to drag myself from my sickbed for 5 mins to breathe it in.
There really is no lovelier aroma in all Creation, fact fans.
My lilies arn’t out yet! They are being very slow. Yours look lovely! Val

I agree Soilman, but I have to say that Sweet peas come a very close second! I have a few in a glass by me as I type….mmmmmm.
