Dwarf Formosa Lily, Lilium formosanum var pricei, is such a surprising lily with its full-size, fragrant, trumpet-shaped, white flowers to 8″ that have purple markings on the outside. The flowers are just above a diminuative
clump of narrow, dark green leaves. It grows 12 – 24″ tall in contrast to the species that tops out over 3 ft. Unlike the species which is a late season bloomer, the dwarf Formosa lily blooms in spring. Grow in sun to part
shade in fertile, well-drained, moist soil. Hardy to -20 degrees F. The species is native to Taiwan. Liliaceae
