Thanks Rick, I had all this stuff written in a book but things become simplified and forgotten!

I have had a lot of seed on some of my Lilium, L. cernuum was loaded last year but I didn't do anything with the seeds, well actually I ended up sprinkling a lot of seed around the front bed and some are growing! They are even better this year, loads of flowers and seed pods. I put 3 to a big pot each in a greenhouse, but it's a holey one with lots of shade, also next to Gloriowhatsits so it seems to like being there in my black gold of course, I use no fertiliser at all.

Don't start me off again Anthony, later I'll be scouring the web again when we get a cold day! It only takes one cold summer's day to put me out of sorts, not to mention 6 months of winter. I couldn't bring all my plants with me though!

I went through dozens of folders to find L. cernuum, this was on 10th June! It wasn't easy getting a pic in the greenhouse, but you can see how well they are doing. The scent isn't the best, in fact a little off, but they are a good doer where they are. One day I might try some in the ground.
