Oriental Lily
Huge, intensely fragrant blooms in deep pink and white that perfume the entire garden. The lily that defines summer.
Dangerous to cats
Fatal to cats. Every part is dangerous, including the pollen and the water in the vase, and a cat that brushes past a stem and grooms itself can suffer fatal kidney failure. Do not bring these into a home with cats, and treat any exposure as an emergency.
Handle with care
The bulbs are mildly poisonous if eaten.
