Yesterday I got to meet these lovelies at Lim Ket Kai, where plants and flowers are displayed and for sale as part of the Cagayan de Oro City Fiesta Celebration on August 28. Hubby and I happened to passed by at the area after my appointment with the doctor and saw a lot of beautiful flowering plants displayed including gerberas, orchids, mums and pretty large blooms of stargazers. Accordingly, most of the flower plants on sale came from Davao City.

Lilium Stargazer is a hybrid Oriental Lily and are known for its fragrance. Stargazer was created in 1974 by by Leslie Woodriff, a lily breeder in California. This cross breed lily was named Stargazer because the bloom faces toward the sky.

Stargazers are available in pink and white, white and yellow colors. I
only saw two colors yesterday but the vendor told me that there were
yellows but were already sold out.

I wanted to buy the full grown plant with blooms but it cost about P350 (approx. $8.0) per plant, too expensive for me. So I settled getting the seedlings instead at P75 (approx. $1.7) each.
I bought the pink and white, white and yellow seedlings and hoping to grow it well and soon watch them bloom in my front yard.
