| i have some newly planted lilies bulbs that were starting to sprout through the ground then my husband thought the bed needed more soil and buried them, will they continue to grow through the added soil or will they die? |

| Lilies are strange plants. They find their perfect depth by some how migrating up and down in the soil until their are happy. Weird! Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost President: Orchid Society of Northern Nevada Webmaster: osnnv.org |

DaisyI said:Lilies are strange plants. They find their perfect depth by some how migrating up and down in the soil until their are happy. Weird! Many Liliums have contractile roots that enable them to pull themselves down into the soil to the right depth. The few that don't use stolons to grow new bulbs at the right level, slowly moving the cluster up or down.

Thanks for explaining that Australis. I thought it was magic (I think I like magic better  )Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost President: Orchid Society of Northern Nevada Webmaster: osnnv.org |
