We specialize in martagon lilies and have a nice collection: just over 50 varieties, plus many seedlings, which has been acquired over the past 15 years. We have been hybridizing new varieties of martagon lilies over the past decade and look forward to the new and exciting forms and colors we will introduce to the market.
Martagons are slow on their first year of planting, but once established, they will last for many years, reaching heights of over 4ft, and many will have flower counts of up to 40 flowers. They come in a wide range of colors and flower forms. The overall plant structure is very striking, with whorled leaves and triangular flower composition, they are very showing in any garden setting.
Plant them inrich organic loam soil, with good drainage and proper sunlight. This lily also does well in a dappled shade environment, requiring at least 6 hours of sun per day. Martagons are a great way to add a splash of color in a shaded garden. They are extremely hardy, to about -40 C, and grow well in a zone 2 climate, which tolerate our chinook climate extremely well.
