    Tiny Parrot and Tiny Orange Sensation look very similar in photos. From what I can tell, the main difference is that Tiny Parrot is slighly less orange, more of a golden yellow, behind the red stippling. I have the two planted near each other, so I will be able to compare closely when they both open. This lily's buds are quite a bit larger than Tiny Orange Sensation's also, at least to date.

    The flowers of this lily are significantly larger than those of Tiny Orange Sensation (I wondered if I had confused them somehow.) As well, Tiny Parrot has a rim of yellow-gold around the edge of each petal. So it is fairly easy to tell the two apart after all. This lily makes an amazing display for such a small plant.
