Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This toad lily has an arching habit and very large cup-shaped flowers that are beautifully marked. The flowers are white with tiny purple spots. Toad lilies are wonderful plants for the late summer and fall shade garden. Most grow on elegant arching stems often with lightly mottled foliage. They produce multitudes of ornate orchid-like flowers that are usually white (sometimes yellow) with various degrees of purple spotting.
