Pink & White Lilies

Day Lilies

• Persian Market and Fairy Tale Pink are two daylily varieties that come in pink and white. These particular varieties are more pink than white, and feature vibrantly colored blossoms with lines of white in the center. For blooms that are more white than pink, Chorus Line and Barbara Mitchell are two that are very common. Catherine Woodbury is a variety that mixes not only pink and white, but also tones of lavender on the blooms.

Oriental Lilies

• Several varieties of Oriental lilies come with bicolored blooms in pink and white. Stargazer is perhaps the best-known variety that is very common. Other varieties that offer this color combination are: Tiger Woods, which is a tiger-type of lily that features light pink and white blooms with darker pink speckles; and Enjoy, which features delicate pink blooms with white striping in the centers. This particular variety has large flowers.

Asiatic Lilies

• Asiatic lilies are shaped differently than the traditional lily but still come in bulbs and display the same characteristics. These particular flowers have several small blooms that typically face downward on the plant. Varieties that mix pink and white include Ariadne, which is a very light pink; and Eurydice, which is a darker pink, almost fuchsia. Stem of Eros is typically more pink than white but features tiny white striations on each bloom.

Hybrids

• Several hybridized lilies also come in pink and white. American hybrids combine the downward blooms of Asiatic lilies with the colorful markings of an Oriental lily. Many of these hybrids also feature Tiger Lily characteristics with dark colored speckles on every bloom. Trumpet and Aurelian lilies are known for their pink-and-white striped blooms and these varieties feature large blooms. Further hybridization of Oriental and Trumpet lilies also produce pink and white blooms, but these are not very common.
