Description

The perfect contrast to bright flowers for head-turning displays both indoors and out! Unique displays of sumptuous, black cherry flowers. 'Secret Kiss' is easily one of the darkest lilies we know of.

Their upright stems will reach around 1m tall, with more flowers per stem as they return year after year.

A bold Asiatic variety with silky, dark burgundy petals that glow under the sun, while striking orange pollen adds a fiery, unexpected highlight at the flower's heart. Together, these colours create an extraordinary look, perfect for a container or the back of a mixed border.

Incredibly hardy, easy to grow and early to bloom. Even if you've never grown lilies before, 'Secret Kiss' is a great place to start. It thrives in well-drained soil and enjoys full sun or partial shade, producing multiple stems each year that reach around one metre tall.

Cut a few blooms for a vase and you'll instantly create a rich, contemporary floral display that lasts for days. The blooms are also adored by pollinators, adding life and movement to your garden.

Supplied as a set of 10 bulbs, size 12/14, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Once they have flowered your lilies will not bloom again until the following year, so be sure to plant them with other plants that look great later in the season.
Remove the faded flowers so that the plants don’t waste energy making seeds.
Care Information
  • As these lilies can grow so tall, staking them against the wind - stout bamboo canes are ideal as they blend in with the stems.
  • Keep an eye out for lily beetles which can quickly defoliate your plants.
  • Plant in fertile, moist and well-drained soil - a layer of horticultural grit in the planting hole will help drainage.
  • Plant bulbs where the plants will benefit from light afternoon shade.
  • Mulch over winter to protect the bulbs from extreme cold , or if your ground lays wet, you may want to consider lifting and storing the bulbs.
  • Keep well-watered when in growth and give a high-potassium liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks from early spring until 6 weeks after flowering.
  • Leave the foliage until it turns brown in autumn.
  • Divide plants every 3 to 4 years as new growth begins in the spring.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
