Lily season has been slow to get going here. It has been cold and rainy for days but the forecast is for better weather. Yay!

My basket of Lily Looks red dwarf lilies are blooming now.

This is a NoID Kiss Me Kate look alike that I have had for years. Very vigorous. Purchased as Pink Perfection from Jung's and that is the last time I ordered a lily from them. They have great corn seed though!

I recently purchased a pot each of Petite Brigitte and Tiny Padhye at a local nursery, both in bud, so I was taking a chance. I like the Tiny Padhye more than I thought I would. The flowers are large and of very heavy substance, and the color is not bad at all.

Tiny Padhye:



Last for now is Belo Horizonte which has become one of my favorites for upfacing lilies. Photo was taken right upon opening when the colors are most vivid. The red brushmarks are pretty much gone after a couple of days.
