Hello, I'm new here, and somewhat new to lilies. Two years ago I planted an Oriental lily called The Edge. It's first year it was spectacular! Huge white blooms with a wide, dark pink/lavender edge. This year, as sure as the sky is blue, the blossoms are pure white. At first I thought maybe I got it mixed up with Casablanca, but Casablanca is planted on the other side of the garden, and it's blooms are quite a bit larger. The actual stalk, number of and size of blossoms is fine, it's the total lack of color which has caught me off guard. I've never seen a lily do this! Could this be a problem with the soil, or possibly some genetic issue? Happy to post pictures if anyone want to see....
