The prominent orange stamens are showy and the perfect colour complement. Asiatic Lilies tend to be shorter and sturdier than other lilies. They bloom earlier and their petals are slightly more waxy and weather resistant.

For many gardeners, winter is hella boring, especially if you live in Canada like myself where it lasts about 5 months out of the year. (Please send help) Sadly, there isn’t much we can really do except maybe buy a couple of house plants to scratch the itch, only to then maybe kill them. Or perhaps a classic Pinterest board of garden inspiration, or brainstorming a very long list of gardening “to-do’s” that you’d like to tackle once that dreadful snow has melted. For me, winter is also a fantastic time to do some damage to my wallet, as most online sites are now pushing their spring planting bulbs and seeds.

Her harvest baskets literally make me foam out the mouth, seriously stunning shades of black and white that are completely edible! She inspired me in 2025 to start my own gothic vegetable garden with the help of Westcoast Seeds and Veseys. Unfortunately we had a very late spring, and just when everyone thought we were in the clear end of May (which is normally a safe time in our area to plant annuals and food items) another frost swung back around and killed half of my stock. Utter heartbreak.
