10 Bulbs Blackstone Asiatic Lily Deep Burgundy Blooms

The Blackstone Asiatic Lily is a striking bulb variety prized for its deep, near-black burgundy petals that bring dramatic contrast to garden beds and borders. Blooming in early to mid summer, each sturdy stem carries multiple upward-facing flowers that stand out against green foliage, making it a rewarding choice for both new and experienced gardeners.

These lilies work beautifully in mixed perennial borders, cutting gardens, and container plantings, where their rich color pairs well with lighter blooms and ornamental grasses. The flowers hold well when cut for arrangements, and the plants return reliably year after year when left in place. Plant the bulbs in a sunny spot with well-draining soil for the strongest stems and most abundant blooms.
