what kind of lilies?

I have 3 pods now, but the tree is loaded with them so I will have many more. I'm looking for blackberry lily seeds, or other fast growing lilies or perennials that will do well in Zone 10 and are fairly drought tolerant for a border along a walkway. EMAIL ME. Thanks! Trisha

I have for trade Oriental Lily mix seeds (Commercial from T's Flower's & Things). I also have Oriental Lily that are dark pink from my garden. These are very fragrant. I am open to trades, interested in perennials nothing common. Please make an offer and I will let you know. THanks

When the pods turn brown and dry, they split open and seed is dispersed by wind. Lily seeds are shaped sort of like lentils: flat and roundish. If the seed is thin as paper and transparent, it is not viable. If it is thick and has what looks like a tiny root inside, it may be viable. Good seeds are roughly 1/4" across. The only way for an amateur to test viability is to plant the seed and see if it grows. This is tricky, since different types of lilies have different germination requirements. For more information, visit the Yahoo Lilium forum or the North American Lily Society website, or use Google. The NALS articles are ultra-cute and ultra-optimistic, but still have some good information in them. In my opinion, growing lilies from seed is a fairly specialized skill and requires great patience. So I don't know why some people say it's easy. Maybe they are very good growers, so it's easy for them. For hybrids, you are much better off doing vegetative (asexual) propagation, such as scaling, stem bulbils, etc. The resulting plants will be genetically identical to the parent plant. The disadvantage of this method is that viruses in the parent are transmitted to the offspring. This does not happen with seeds.
