  • Posted by Ispahan (Chicago - Zone 6a) on Jun 30, 2012 6:53 PM concerning plant:
    'Quintessence' has one of the nicest and headiest perfumes among OT lilies, perfectly blending the delicious scents of trumpet and Oriental lilies and adding an extra overtone of honeysuckle. Color seems to be heat and sun sensitive, but it is usually a pretty cream with reddish-orange markings in the throat.
