Lane DeVries loves to grow flowers. As I mentioned a few weeks ago, Lane DeVries’ favorite flower is a soil grown tulip, I swam against the tide to admit that my favorite flower is a lily. What may have gotten lost in translation is how much Lane loves to grow all sorts of other flowers. Lane is constantly searching out new and different varieties of flowers. There are always several test varieties in the ground, and the growers are always whispering about a new flower they have growing out in the back greenhouse.
Flowers not only take time to grow, but they take much more time to understand. For about the last five years we have been growing larger and larger crops of a really wild Asiatic hybrid lily. Have you heard of the “Tango Series”? These lilies are the new comers to the Asiatic scene, and we are still getting our customers saying, “Whoa, what’s that lily?”
Today I would like to introduce you to a Tango variety called “Orange Art”.
