It photographs well!

I'd agree with that. I remember you noted a some what extensive percentage of weather related damage.

This is suppose to be Prince Promise. Hoping by some magic it will look right by tomorrow, but I don't think it will.

Wow, they are all gorgeous! I would love to have all of them all over my beds!

Prince Promise looks closer to White Heaven, but your lilies are gorgeous none the less

Just remember, this hidden frost damage is only the second part of two contributing events. The first part was, as Rick said in another thread, the 17 inches of rain in Oct and Nov last Fall. It was that event that likely limited the number of buds and resulted in deformed flowers (reproductive system). That was the biggest factor. The final event was the freeze which triggered some metabolic process to abort any surviving buds in formation. Back on May 12th, when Jeff Stiller (NALS Board Member-Milw.) and I were discussing the hard freeze, I said that my Asiatic and Martagon appeared untouched by the freeze, he said: " but I'm afraid we haven't seen the full affect yet'. I never gave it much thought then----but he suspected then, there was more to come of it.

Susan, your flowers are looking so healthy and nice. I think they like you and their home!

This thread is ot only calming my Lilium-withdrawal-anxiety, but providing really great information on growing these beauties as well. Special thanks to Rick and Lorn for the latter.

I love everyones pictures. Another couple seasons and I will have no lawn left, thanks everyone

Tracey, I think you may be right about my Prince Promise being White Heaven. No sign of pink.

Lemon Lime Trumpet



Night Flyer is still going strong. Never seems to fade in the heat.


Pendant Peach

Royal Cinnabar does fade, but in an interesting way.

Almost full bloom

Here's a weird flower on FF06-12
Edited to add this is a numbered Fred Fellner lily.

Is it only that one flower on that seedling?

That is one single flower. There are others on the stem but that is quite unique From the others.

I really admire Fred Fellner's lilies. Thanks for posting, Tracey!

Beautiful, Susan. One of my favorite lilies of all time is Morden Butterfly. Absolutely love that one!

This is what's blooming so far in my garden. They're easily 2 weeks ahead of schedule this year.
