With apologies from a probable stranger for nervously pouncing your thread, perhaps this is a good place to say a first hello. I'm also in Tasmania, in midst of rising lily stem fever, hoping to see buds clear foliage soon... but found this forum only a few weeks ago. Thanks for sharing your pics - they remind me just how many lilies can be fitted into a small garden space when determination is high. I'm inspired to redouble my own efforts now and reclaim more concrete from the monkey-kids for little spear babies instead.
When you mention lily show, do you mean the event at Claremont (if it's still out there... it's been years since I went), or one of the northwest events (Burnie or Devonport)? The prospect of seeing lilies again is intoxicating.
