I have a small bulb of this that's going to flower for the first time this year, I can't wait. I've seen this referred to as both an OT and an Aurelian, I'm confused!

It is OT, a seedling from King Kong.

I just looked up King Kong and now I can see what makes it an OT. Thanks Connie!

Hi Everybody, great to see so many folks I know still active here! My gardens are finally getting some love again, so happy to see a good showing of Lilies after a couple of years of neglect. Do any of you remember those old commercials for Samsonite luggage with the ape beating the heck out of a suit case? I kinda feel like the Samsonite ape for plants- if they're still thriving in my garden, they're bullet proof! LOL

'Gluhwein' has been wonderful!

Tracey, 'Robina' is enormous! Mine are as tall as me with blooms as big as my face! They're one of the most purple-ish I've grown, I'm loving them.

'Shocking' put on a wonderful show:

'Montego Bay' is extra fragrant, so I had to move some to a couple of areas where I could enjoy the scent, and where the color would be just right. I haven't been acquiring new bulbs, but have had a great time getting OCD with my color placement. All this rain has made moving mature plants go quite well.Thumb of 2013-07-11/gemini_sage/d51a78

Another 'Montego Bay' I moved to the back deck area:
