What types of lilium do you grow there in Vanadzor? Are there any native Species lilies in Armenia? I Googled Vanadzor and I see it's very pretty there with cool night time temperatures in the summer.


Thank you!
Indeed, we have have moderate summers. Our area is very favorable for growing bulbous plants.
There are two lily species growing wild in our country: lilium szovitsianum and lilium monadelphum var. armenum.

My lily collection not not very large. I grow some Asiatics, LA, OT, Orientals, Trumpets and longiflorums. My favorite lilies are Trumpets and Aurelians, but pity there are not common in trade. This year I ordered some from Lily Nook and The Lily Garden. What is very bed here that thy are mostly offered as strains and it is very hard to get a good strain, which resemble a true variety. Here many fellows show their 'African Queen', all look different and no one resembles true 'African Queen'. Now I thin that they are not direct strains but strains from the strains.

My lilium regale blooming in the country house.
