Apricot Star, a new FA intersectional hybrid lily cultivar, was developed in 2008 at National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA), Korea. The cross were conducted between female parent Lilium FA hybrid FA97-30 (L. formolongi hybrid Raizan × L. Asiatic hybrid A61) and a male parent L. Asiatic hybrid Sgl Pepper by cut style pollination method (CSM) at Suwon in 1999. And immature embryos were rescue. The first selection was done and was tentatively named as FA03-10 in 2003. After in vitro multiplication, acclimatization, and bulb production of FA03-10 line, growth and flowering characteristic tests were conducted from 2004 to 2007. The evaluations of crop characteristics and consumer preferences were surveyed at the lily flower show of NIHHS in 2008. Apricot Star flowers in the last of June and grows more than 150 cm in stem length. Flowers with light orange (RHS, O24B) blooms facing upward. The pollen of Apricot Star is sterile. Year-round flowering can be done by storing the bulbs at -1.5℃. It is needed to prevent Botrytis disease in wet seasons.
