These two opened - the red is suppose to be a red tiger? Can someone ID them?

Oops! Here they are:

Bottom one is Sweet Surrender,,.,The 1st one, the purple is incredible,.It looks like a reference picture I saw of 'Lanzarote'

Love that red one!

Perhaps a hybrid of Sweet Surrender, but the real one is in our data base. Note that it should not be up facing, also. Sweet Surrender can have yellow tones like yours Anthony, depending on the year.

See it here, too:

Incidentally, our Minnesota Chapter is looking for hopefully not lost lily cultivars of Minnesota origin. Both photos and plants for their data base and Minnesota Hybrids garden. Contact info on that page.

Here is my Sweet Surrender that bloomed in Arcata, California



Is this one correct?

The spotting should be quite regular in a ringed area around the center with no spotting within. Yours looks as though it is not having a good year, seeing the abnormality in the petals. So, although the spotting is not right, it might b attributed to other things this particular year. See what it looks like next season.

I would add that this lily is very common in the general bulb trade making errors more likely. Just my opinion of course.
