Lily named Copellia
1989
McRae, E.A.
A new and distinct variety of hybrid lily bearing large upright to semi-upright flowers of excellent form particulary characterized by their clear pink coloration extending along the midrib of each tepal and suffuxing laterally toward a pure white petal margin which meets from each side to form a pure white outer end and tip of each tepal. This combination of large size and coloration and the upright to semi-upright orientation of the flowers of this plant is completely new in the Oriental hybrid divisions of lilies suited to forcing and to mass commercial cultivation. The plant is highly resistant to disease and shows tolerance of virus; it is an excellent garden plant; and the bulbs may be precooled and forced for cut flower production.
