Hamilton Lilian charms with perfectly formed decorative blooms in a serene blend of peach, apricot, and even soft yellow—sometimes showing hints of pink as the petals catch the light. Most blooms measure 4 to 5 inches across and are held on shorter plants, usually about 3 feet, though some reports say they can reach closer to 4 feet if well established and pinched early for branching. Each flower is neat and symmetrical, with sharp, pointed petals that lend a crisp, classic look. The blooms are surprisingly tough, holding up well to handling and lasting beautifully in the vase. The overall effect is reminiscent of ripe cantaloupe or a creamy sunset, and the plant is noted for its steady, reliable flush of blooms all season.
