A decade ago I'd captured white, pink and orange lilies at Karnataka University botanical garden. I might have seen them inbetween then and now however nothing like the plant which bore six lilies at the same time. The tuber like roots had been planted about three years back. The plant never bore flowers until this time. I guess good rains changed the plant's mode and lo, here we are looking at bright red flowers and two buds from one single stem.

The next day it had become five flowers.

After two days, it was six. Its a rare thing to find six flowers emerging from one stem. The petals are thick and heavy. These flowers stay fresh for ten to fifteen days,= depending on climatic conditions.
