Abstract
A new and distinct lily cultivar of the Parkmanni type of Oriental hybrid particularly distinguished by its light pink, outward and slightly upfacing bowl-shaped flowers which are borne in a raceme arrangement on long strong stems and still upward projecting pedicels growing off the main stem, usually with one bud or flower on each pedicel. The fewer the flowers on the stem, the more upright the pedicels and buds become. In addition, it has green, glossy and relatively disease resistant foliage.
