I'm wondering if what you have are the bulbils from Lilium Tigrinum rather than Superbum. Superbum's native Habitat: wet meadows and woodlands with moist but well drained soil  Height: 3-7 feet  Flower size: 2-1/2 inches across  Flower color: orange  Flowering time: July to September  Origin: native The Turk's-cap lily flowers have a green star at the center which makes a good identifying mark for this plant. The green star will distinguish L. Superbum which is a native plant from L. trigrinum originally from Asia. L. Tigrinum flowers are Turk's cap shape, deepy recurved and downward facing. Primarily spotted orange, but do come in other colors - yellow, cream, white, pale lavender, peach, and mahogany. In any case, planting them is fine - the bulbils are naturally falling around the parent plants now and all they really need is contact with the ground. Their tiny root shoot will pull them down into the soil to the depth they want to be. Since you planted yours, I'd suggest you install a marker since they look like blades of grass the first season - easy to forget and mistakingly pull them up or dig and plant over them. If they are, indeed, L. Tigrinum, expect 100% germination rate and at least three growing seasons to reach blooming size. Not sure about the L. Superbums.

All of these have now gone to a loving home :-) Thank you!

I think I planted mine in the Spring but they germinated easily. I would plant some now. We have a week of nice warm weather and bring them in for the bad freezes this winter and If they don't come up , let them stratify outside and then water them again in the spring. Plant some in the spring just to be safe. That is how I cover the bases.

Some - not all - lily bulbs are poisonous. Lily bulbs have long played a role in Asian diets and a number of different types of lilies are sold in groceries and markets throughout the far east as well as in Asian markets in this country. And these include Lilium lancifolium, aka Turk's Cap. So yes, it is true :-)
