I think so! I potted up a bunch of lily seeds I had into gallon size pots and have them outside on the deck letting mother nature do her thing. Quite a lot of information here just following the older posts. Last night while reading them I confirmed what I had suspected about some damaged lilies I had a couple of years ago. It was quite mystifying at the time but I was suspicious that I had cleaned up my beds to early in the spring and they had gotten frostbitten/sun scald on them. They were some OT's I had planted. I happened upon the thread because I had caught myself wanting to clean up the beds on a beautiful day this week and I stopped myself. March thaws and weird weather can reap havoc on anything my spring fevered mind can focus on. Tomorrow I am off to the hardware store to purchase some chicken wire and lathes. My old cat manages to sneak past the stuff I have been using to keep her out of the beds (I had no idea lilies were dangerous to cats) and now my old Basset has decided she loves the sunniest bed herself. I don't even want to think of how much damage her own fat self can cause laying across my lilies, the cat was a real crusher as it was.
