Can You Identify This Lily?
Comments (1)It looks like an Oriental lily of some type - was it fragrant and did it have leaves opposite on the stem as opposed to in whorls? There are lots of pink Orientals, it might be tough to get a name on it. BTW, I have several medium pink lilies that sometimes bloom with broken color like that, and some years don't. Not sure why they do it but it's almost always pinks....See MoreLily bulbs to keep the daylilies company
Comments (51)Hurray. I got all the Jacqueline lilies and Centerfold lilies and the other leftover lily bulbs that were still here from VB Wholesale all planted today. That left me with the oder from Brent and Beckys. I started but only got BRIGHT STAR and BESTSELLER planted today. I have lilies popping up all over the place! I thought I had a good amount when I put in all those 400 lily bulbs last year from VB Wholesale. That was the start of my bulb lily crazies even though I have been buying at local nurseries for years. But this year I went totally, totally overboard with my bulb lily crazies. I just kept ordering and ordering. At least I only have that last batch to plant and no more ordered thank goodness. And I am not going to order any more lilies until the fall. So just one more box to plant besides everything else that needs planting around here. Those darn lily bulbs are just so easy to find spots for that I get carried away....See MoreLilies, Lilies, Lilies
Comments (109)Apparently someone added some new spam to an OLD thread (which has obviously been removed.) Wow, I mean old. Glad the spam's removed, and how cool to see such an old discussion still kicking around. It's even formatted differently. (Putting a fake email addy so this post doesn't cause me to get MORE spam.) My favorite lilies are Lycoris and the Asiatics, like Stargazer....See MoreCan you help me identify this lily? Pics included
Comments (5)My guess is Peruvian Daffodil, sometimes called Spider Lily. Gorgeous plant. I grow them in huge pots and winter them over in the heated garage. They are usually white, but this year I found some in pale yellow (called Sulphur). Two and half to three feet tall is normal I believe, though mine grow closer to 4'. Can't remember how to post pics here and am on my way out the door but if you search Peruvian Daffodil or Spider Lily, you'll get pics....See MoreSamantha
