The Tier Lily White Twinkle, Is it really a tiger Lily? Well, the mail order company which I purchased it from referred to it as Asiatic. The appearance suggests Tiger, that’s good enough for me.
I planted three clumps of this gorgeous Lily in our back garden in mid-Winter. The timing of this was not by choice. That is when they landed on my doorstep.
I struggled to find planting spots for Tiger Lily White Twinkle, so overcrowded our borders have become. However, where there’s a will.
Actually, Lilies can work out well squeezed in between perennials and poking their heads through.
The bulbs were smaller than I would have hoped for, but as you can see, did pretty well.
The flowers opened fully in early July and lasted for about three weeks. Beautiful as they are, the nodding heads sort of make you want to lie on the ground and look upwards. I have done dafter things, but never in the front garden. More Lilies in our Cheshire garden

Here is where I am determined to complicate things. The majority, but not all, refer to Lily white Twinkle as being a Tiger Lily, some say it is an Asiatic with Tiger characteristics, in fact RHS describe it as Asiatic.
So, Tiger Lilies like the soil to be on the acidic side, whereas Asiatics prefer neutral to alkaline.
Our soil is slightly acidic, but I am pretty sure if it is neutral and leaning slightly either way it will be fine. Free draining on the rich side is good.
The white ivory nodding flowers are greyish speckled and lightly scented. Bloom time is July/August.
Best in full sun, but will tolerate part shade. Plant bulbs from late Autumn through till early Spring.
