JoAnn, thanks for sharing, and kudos to you for pursuing your education after starting your family- that sure isn't easy, and is the most important step to self empowerment.
Can't really say I've got much of a regimen for maintaining Lily beds other than composting, but I'm thinking that may need to change. Some thick clumps of Asiatics simply didn't show up this year, as well as a few OTs. I didn't detect any tunnels in those areas that would have suggested rodent activity, so I'm stumped. The missing clumps would have been in their 4th year, and I probably would have been dividing them this year.
