Stargazer Lily Without Any Pollen

Question

Hi I have some beautiful fragrant stargazer lilies indoors. 1 flower has opened and looks unusual as no orange pollen whatsoever. Is this a freak of nature? Kind regards Mel

This is quite common in modern varieties. They tend to be over-inbred and sometimes sterile. Sometimes, since they are just very slightly attached, the stamens fall off as the flower is opening.

Nothing is wrong with them. They look healthy.

Here is an article that will help you to care for them:
