Humboldt Lily: Bold, Bright, Beautiful!
The Ocellated Humboldt Lily (Lilium humboldtii ssp. ocellatum) is a rare native perennial endemic to Southern California. The flowers are orange with reddish-brown speckles and will bloom in early summer, then go deciduous.
Does well in dry shade areas and can reach heights up to 8’ tall. We currently have this spectacular plant available for purchase in our nursery sourced directly from the Santa Monica/Malibu Watershed made possible through our Local Source Initiative! Come by the nursery and get yours today!

Theodore Payne Foundation kindly asks
for your help in protecting the delicate balance of our native ecosystems by not sowing seeds in nature preserves, open spaces, wilderness, or post-burn areas. Our seed offerings are intended to be sown in cultivated and garden settings.
