Thanks to the Philippine Lily's phenomenal seed-setting capability, I have these beautiful plants growing everywhere in various stages of maturity. Each flower, after it fades, sets hundreds of seeds inside a very cool-looking pod. In addition to Tiger Lilies (which the voles seem to love since I cannot get them to return every year), Philippine Lilies are very well-suited to the south's hot weather. Clay soil, sandy soil - they do fine in either. In the evenings these lovely flowers release their scent, and the hummingbird moths love them.
