While some sellers state a height of 18 inches, in its second year 'Orange Electric' reached well over 36 inches in my garden. Might be a good choice for flowers arrangements because the orange marking are less striking from a distance.

Orange Electric is a small lily. Small flowers and it is short, not a tall stalk. It makes up for not being large with the lovely truly eye catching white and blushed orange flowers with small spots. Very, very pretty. Everyone who likes lilies should have some Orange Electric in their garden.

Died the first year. Highly uncommon for any Asiatic to die here.
