As for Yellow Tianba, its flowers are likewise large and full, with a diameter reaching 20-25cm. Its colors are rich; besides solid colors, it may also have other patterns. The flower color along the edges of the yellow petals is somewhat paler, and the overall color contrast is higher, with yellow and white clearly distinct. Moreover, Yellow Tianba's petals are relatively straight, with almost no obvious waviness, making it look more upright and crisp.

Next, let's talk about fragrance. The Wooden Door Lily gives off a rather fresh, light, elegant scent that instantly lifts your mood when you smell it, and this fragrance is never overly strong, always keeping just the right pleasant level.
