....let's talk lily plans for '08! Many of us have been participating in co ops, scouring catalogs and websites, or even hybridizing and growing brand new babies from seed. What are your plans for your new lilies? Are you adding to your collection, designing a cottage garden, delighting your nose, planning for cut flowers??? YES is my answer, LOL!

What other plants will you combine with them? What color combinations do you have in mind? Will you grow annuals around their ankles to shade the soil? Or perhaps some pungent herb to discourage rodents? Will you be digging new beds for them, or adding them to existing gardens? I'd love to see pics of where they're going!

And words of wisdom you have to share are welcomed! Many of the co op participants we've enabled mercilessly are new to lilies, and will appreciate guidance :-)

Thanks!
