First bloom here on Wednesday was 'Purple Diamond', but ,it and a 'Brindisi' was scooped up by a nurse at the 'Vetinary Clinic'.Mapira by Sunday ,"I reckon''..I was shown a 'Cernuum Album' bloom in NSW, last week, so, Della, we are not far behind ..It is like a Borneo Jungle here with liliums, and the beautiful smells of spring are rich in the air...I love it!.. The x Dalhansonii is bulging at the seams and promises to be brilliant...So much, and I have been under the pump for a few weeks, really busy at work, ant attack on my 'little chickies ' birdcage,....Re-union tomorrow[Mitsubishi Motors] and have to 'prep' the Ol truck ,ready for lily sales...
