I have several other OT and Oriental lilies in this same bed at various stages of growth. While some are dark red and others different shades of green, the colors on this one did cause some panic. It sent me here looking for posts on dealing with the soil lilies with a virus are growing in. Thanks for the information on cold damage. We continue to have nights in the 40's and it was only a few weeks ago that we had nights in the high 20's. I didn't notice if these stem bulblets sprouted earlier than the main stem, but you've answered an unasked question I had about a few other lilies. Lily marker, many small sprouts but no main stem.
