Recently "rescued" this lily from a nearby Bunnings. Pretty sure it's "Tiny Rocket" (the label states very prominently that it's a Lily Looks Asiatic and it's the right height), but just want to confirm this and also get an opinion on the discolouration at the end of the tepals. The weather here has been lousy the past fortnight, so I expect it's because the buds were damaged by the cold and wet (Bunnings was storing these outside in their nursery section and they appeared about a week before Mothers' Day). I've been keeping it inside, near a window, to try to protect it a bit.

It's way out of season for Melbourne, so I'm hoping it'll improve next summer. I'm removing the flowers as soon as they start to wilt and have also removed a few buds that looked obviously damaged in an attempt to reduce the impact of the shortened "rest" period that these bulbs will get as a result of being forced so far out of sync.
