Really nice ones, Øystein!
I especially like the last two red ones.

Very nice Øystein! I really like the first two!

Not sure of the cross, maby Mistika x Ciganiete, 2 yellow tango. I lost Ciganiete last year so I am happy to have a similar.

Anthony, this is from your seeds.

I especially like the red with the dark spot. Nice!

Nice dark stigma.

Brilliant ,Oystein , Thank you for growing them.. I have never seen such a dark stem .. I will repay you in November with many of your seedlings pics you sent

Della ?we overposted

A good feeling to see your babies flowering on the other side of the world!

How good ? very good & isn't there some 'Devil' in that one?

More seedlings from various crosses












This is the same plant as above, plenty of buds. Not sure if the seeds come from NALS or somewhere else.


probably L. leichtlinii x Ove, my cross. 2 seedlings identical and 1 seedling with only a few spots.

Thank you for sharing your lovely seedlings.

Interesting pattern shown by that second one.

Seedling from Knight Ridder x St. Louis Pink, seeds from Brian Bergman.


This might be from seeds from Anthony


Not sure of the cross, many exiting tangoes this year.



My own cross but can't remember the cross.


Not a good picture or flower, we had had some rain the day before. But I really liked the color.

This is also Knight Ridder x St. Louis Pink


Seeds from Anthony: 4 You x white lancifolium ...... ( can't read the label) huge flower, bubills on the stem.


My own cross.



2 interesting tango seedlings, my own cross.

This lily was a surprise for me, I have never seen it before. But it has 2 stems so it must be 2-3 years old. It might be a 4n asiatic. I'm not able to try pollinating it since I don't have a greenhouse yet. It's not easy to get seeds on lilies without a greenhouse.


Some of my lilies in my old kitchengarden.


A trumpet seedling.

A miniature trumpet. It's on a dry place, maby that's why it's so small.

A OT seedling. The seed come from a Danish lily hybridizer, Ole Larsen. His OT seedlings are exelent fertile.

Everything looks nice and healthy for a new fresh start. Good luck with setting up a new greenhouse. It helps a lot to have Ole Larsen as a friend.

Ole is a great guy! He usually puts a different OT pollen on his OTs everyday for 4-5 day to get the most out of the pod parent. Good looking stuff Øystein. Can you please explain why you need a greenhouse to get seeds? Is it a weather issue by you?

Yes, our summer are often topp cool for getting seeds on lilies in our climate. Exeption are martagons. The asiatics will some times give some seeds but I have never gott OT seeds in my garden, only in greenhouse. But until now I have not had very fertile OT lilies.

I've never had a greenhouse for pollinating but I am finally realising how much more potential there is to breeding if you have one. Our summers are unreliable, though probably not as cool as yours, Øystein. Still, I'm determined to build one now. I hope you have one in time for next summer!
