I am curious as to why Atrium is so hard to grow as a lily...(Gold Band). I have been reading it has been used in many hybrids of which I do not know the name of them. If someone has crossed it would love to know the name. they say that it gets a bad virus for almost anyone that plants it after a year or two and I have about 10 of them planted this year......

My daughter in law got fooled by the lily trees but I did not......... I called the so named company on that as a matter of fact since trees do not die down to the ground.
Orienpets are tall but not as tall as they claim the trees can get.... I am curious on the back ground of the purple prince though in particular and it cross. although I do not buy into the tree I have 33 of these planted here and so far this year they are making an outstanding show just coming out of the ground and HUGE. I was hoping or mauve but sounds like they are going to be more black/purple type of orienpet in bloom.

My main preference is the trumpets... and of course the species lilies ........

IS my understanding right that every single lily has a species somewhere in its background??
