Since I believe that was one of Lisa's seedlings I doubt it but will write her and ask her and if she might know where it can be had.

Polly asked me to come over and post as many of Lisa's bulb pictures that have bloomed this year. I was lucky before she moved she sold me most at a silly price then throw in alot of extra's but that had always been her way.

Lucky you! If I had lived any where near her, I would have been over there digging up her fields after she moved...even if I had to do it with a flashlight! Whistling

stilldew said:The problem with Lisa's lilies is that they are all my favorites! I think Starfire may be her most unique one.

Just found this forum and what is pictured is "Starburst" by Judith McCrae, one of her early ones she gave away (to another company whose name I shall not mention because I DO NOT like them) and it was never appreciated and dropped off the market, until my personal one became many and I sold some. It was a real funny one, didn't like growing with itself in the field, just spectacular in a mixed flower bed!
I sure miss my babies. This is very sad yet very heartwarming to find this. I guess I stay away from here because it reminds me of all the babies I lost.

No Plum Peach, sorry it is lost unless you find someone here who has it. I sent many orientals and some other seedlings to England to another nursery but only sent a few of my non-oriental babies. My breeding goals were late blooming asiatics and early orientals, I was much more successful with the orientals blooming early and not so good with late blooming Asiatics. Although a few were just too good to toss, and Stunning was one that I named at first sight, saw it from a distance and just had to go see what that huge, bright thing was! And I do not really like yellow. She is a Yellow Blaze seedling. Yellow Blaze was late, Stunning is not.
Later efforts were in Trumpets (I have a bad back, I do not want to bend over to see or smell them) and American species hybrids, neglected areas of lily breeding. Most of those seedling were destroyed by dogs and/or weather so not many got sent to England, only one of the American species, "Gorjust" was sent and those were very small.
here is Gorjust

The house is looking better, Lisa. Can't wait to see the yard (?) next year. You're not the only one in the world to fail divorce. I know a couple who have been divorced for decades, and they still live close to each other, and keep the kids close, in spite of moving half way across the country. Can't live together, but can't let go.
Wish I had found this site before things went so bad for you, but I have followed your adventures, and wish you all the best!
