I just packed up pollen from Firetruck, a very sturdy tetraploid lily from buggy. I'll store it in my freezer.

Here is Firetruck, after a one night stand with Soiree...

Love Firetruck. That's a new one I got this spring. Aptly named.

Mine hasn't even bloomed yet. Take that shovel to Pards, you!

Although since I'm dropping names, Stunning, Green Queen, Demure, Queen Of Hearts, Brooke, Champagne, LOL. All and more came with Firetruck. Just can't wait.

Dont everyone jump on me but I braved it and entered Little Yellow Kiss andLadylike on PF.
I was looking up lilies on Google and came across a Dutch Bulb co. They had Petite Pink, which made my Ladylike a wrong entry.
Wait before you cheer.
Admin wrote me back with all the mistakes I had made Misspelled genus,family etc. They also told me they reclassified Petite pink and moved it to Veronica Eveline because the picture most best represented the Veronica.
How many mistakes can one amature make in a day?
They fixed everything,I'm only adding pix from now on.

Although it's cool in Oregon, Bev.

This winter we're going to set up a plant files on here, Jo. I don't like how they just moved Petite Pink to Veronica Eveline. I don't know about that,
