About Lily, Martagon

The small, recurved flowers of the Martagon Division dangle from upright stems in early summer. Self-seeds in a good site, preferring part shade. Flowers open from the bottom up over one to two weeks. See also the AOA Hybrid, Asiatic, LA, Michigan, Orienpet, Oriental, Other, Species, and Trumpet Lilies. All parts of the lily are toxic to cats, even small amounts of pollen and water that held cut lily stems. See the ASPCA for more.
