There are so many lilies that come to mind for me, but once I grew this one, I would say it really stood out for me. I would say that 'Pink Jazz' has to be my very favorite lily. The form is very special, and the coloration, even in my climate in the Midwest, is very unique. It's an OT lily with a lot of trumpet qualities. The fragrance is wonderful, it doesn't need staking and has been reliable, even in extreme temperatures here. The blooms last for weeks. It was bred by Dick Bazett, a small scale Canadian Hybridizer.

When I think to the future, and a bloom when I await the season, it's the first bloom that pops into my head. And as it pops into my head, I am almost immediately transported into my summer garden in my mind. That's how you know, that with so much beauty in lilies, how you know one has won your heart especially.
