The first lily that I seen was the tiger lilies that my Father grew years ago and babied for years and years..........I did not like them but not fussy on orange at all and I remember the pollen coming off them big time as well.
Then when I bought my second lily after the first one my son bought for me........it was supposed to be pink and somewhere although the company was great to order from........came straight from Holland as well and they crazy things came up orange.... Said that was my Dad looking down on me........
that said I actually have a few orange lilies around here now too and a few tigers that are orange and ordered yellow tigers last year that have not bloomed yet.......
it is the species that really got me hooked and interested......
Regale was my first try at a species and still to this day I love that lily...........
these stories are all wonderful and enjoyed reading them all
