Yes, Rick, that history was fascinating to me. I'm wondering if somehow a bulb from the sister seedling, the cotton candy pink one, in 1984, was taken to England or Holland. When I googled the Lily 'Pink Flavour', I found four that were similar to mine. Three in Great Britain: at Harts Nursery: www.hartsnursery.co.uk/Pink-Flavour.html and at Perch Hill in Marlborough in Wiltshire: www.sarahraven.com/flowers/bulbs/lilium_pink_flavour.htm and at Shoot: www.shootgardening.co.uk/plant/lilium/-pink-flavour . In Holland, the Fluwel company shows it, too. www.fluwel.com/pink-flavour.html .
I'll try to find the label for my Tiger Lily collection of the four varieties: Hiawatha, Tiger Baby, Pink Flavour and Leichtinii. It shows the variety called Pink Flavour, as looking like Iowa Rose, but the four bulbs of that variety that I received, look like the varieties shown in England and Holland, like the photos that I have shown above, in my Sept. 4rth entry.
Yes - - - very confusing.
