‘Red Velvet’ is a classic, serendipitous hybrid with a long panicle of deepest velvety black-red flowers. This indestructible lily comes back each year with more and more flowers and lasting the longest. Still delighting gardeners (and hummingbirds) after fifty years, ‘Red Velvet’ has earned its place in the lily Hall of Fame! 

4 to 5 feet, early July.

Hardy in Zones 4 - 8

Plant in groups of threes for a nice look, 12" apart, and 4-6" deep. Easily grown in average soil with good drainage in a sunny to part shade location. Just think cool roots and sunny flowers (plant where the roots will stay cool among other plants (or mulch) and where the flower stalks will be in full sun) for best results. With consistent moisture, your lilies will provide flowers from June to July, after your Tulips and Daffodils and before Summer Lavender, Salvia, and Delphinium.
