That is one tall lily!

The Orienpet lily 'Silk Road' - it was tall last year but I think it is even taller this year. I just got out the tape measure and it is just under 8'. Notice it is leaning so assuming that it was standing straight up, it would surpass 8'.

It must have perfect conditions to grow in. What a stunner, fun. Does it smell as good as it looks? I hope your area doesn't have a big blow to push it on over.

My Silk Road is just about done. Think it was about 7ft here. Watching Silk Road grow and bloom is one of my favorite pastimes.
