What does this mean? It's certainly been hot here and the picotee edge IS visible but the red does start to bleed after day 1. Too bad about the bleeding.

I guess it means 'stay stable in the hot sun for a day'. All the buds on mine were blasted by the sun's heat, Didn't you recently post pics of yours? Great pics!

Is the color stability thing a common issue with Asiatics. Thanks re: the pics. It's a nice lily.

I think Hotline is an Oriental.
In my experience, Asiatics are usually more colorfast.

Oriental right. Thanks.
