Lilies are looking great Tom - keep me in mind when you start thinning those lilies - I am sure you could use some more dahlia tubers

I was told when given this one that it was Lady Alice. When I look at the pictures in the data base it seems to be more orange. Mine is more yellow. The shape is similar but the color is off, so I think this is a NOID.

I definitely prefer your NOID to Miss Alice!

There are times when getting the Not/NOID lily is beneficial

It's kind of nice, but I'd like the stalks to be stronger. They tend to bend over when all of the blooms are open.

One of my favorite NOIDS, a white aurelian with fine markings in the throat. Very strong stem and seemingly immune to any bad thing that might come its way. There is virtually no FLOP with this lily! It is strongly 1c and difficult to photo inside of blooms. I'm still trying to figure out what it is fertile with.


Then there is this White Henryi forgery that I like. Flowers are a little larger than WH and the stigma is purple vs WH green.

Another new one opened this morning. It's called Prince Promise. I really like this one!

Also another one opened that I don't know the name of.

Tom the last one is Dizzy.

I guess it is! Thanks you know your lilies!

A clump shot of Courier and my other NOID.

Yes, I need to do some serious thinning!

I think I have the first one - very tall and fragrant! I might be able to remember what it is. Think I got it from B&D lilies. Also the orange spotty one...

I had another new one open today, but the sun is too bright for good pictures, so I'll have to try tonight.

Here's Scheherazade, just opened this morning. The last of my new ones to open. There aren't many left to open now.


This one is really going to town now. It's right near my bedroom window, and if the breeze is from the right direction, oh my do I have a pleasant smell fall asleep to.

Tom, you're becoming a lily guy now!

That's a great stem of that one by your bedroom window! How many blooms are on that?

I'm what ever is in bloom at the time guy, But I have over 600 irises, so I guess that puts my squarely into the iris freak category!

I will have to count them, I know there are a lot, as I had to support it some. A few are starting to decline now though. I don't think it's ever had that many before.

I'm really liking the NOID aurelians.

I counted the buds, there are 15 open blooms and 5 more buds to open.

Beautiful lilies Tom!

Conca d'or opened now.


I had to hurry and take a picture while I could, as a nasty storm is on the way.
