I would like to plant some more lilies in my flower bed. I just planted Hybrid Lilies (no other identification) which are blooming now. What other species or types can I plant to have blooms throughout the summer. I am interested in lilium not daylilies. If I plant bulbs will I see flowers this year? Thank you, Linda |
You may see blossoms of the later-blooming varieties if you plant soon. Here's the sequence of bloom for various hybrid lilies as listed in the book Bulbs: Four Seasons of Beautiful Blooms, by Lewis & Nancy Hill: Asiatic: mid-June to mid-July Martagon: mid-June Madonna: late June American: end of June/early July Canadian: July Regal: July Trumpet & Aurelian: July-August (long season) Henry: early August Oriental: August Tiger: August Enjoy! |
