Polly, GOOD question!

Ric, thanks for confirming. I guess I got them re-planted in the nick of time, if they don't starve all summer with no dirt. I will feed them.

Connie, I've wondered if it's better to separate the bulbs when replanting. It seems like when the mother bulb dies, in some of the lilies I have, I don't see many babies taking over. Casa Blanca will multiply well and I seem to still have Accapolco, Nippon, Dizzy and Aubade. Mona Lisa and Stargazer just hang on. It's why I wanted to lift all of them last Fall and replant in good soil more suited to them instead of my garden dirt.

I have a well also and even buying the ''fireman's'' nozzle didn't increase pressure.

Well, I'll be watching their performance. They are nosing up now.
