Hi William..
No the spray solution has been going on for some time now and the lilies had no burning in the buds at all at that time.......
the asciatic lilies were sprayed as well and they are all fine......and bloomed ok too......
the ones that the buds are burnt are in the direct hot sun...........
the ones that seem to be ok have all a bit of shade........
some of the cultivators that took the heat the worst are the ones that you would not think would.... Regale is one that did not like it much although some are blooming but the top of the buds are gone ...but still some are blooming and yet other Regale in the same area are all fine......just not the big blooms like normal.
Lankon on the other hand seems to love the heat...........but none of them are blooming yet but the buds are forming nicely so far.........hope that keeps up
We have some severe thunderstorms over the next couple of days and cooler temps for a few days after that and HOPE everything blooms..asap....
this is not fun seeing all this happen and frustrating as you would not believe....
the beetles are incredible with all this heat as well........and gross on top of it too... and not did not spray the buds on all of them.........the foliage that was lost is mostly due to the beetles....
