so all this talk of viruses and whatnot had me worried...but not too worried, my lilies were doing just fine thankyou very much. nothing a little epsom salts won't fix (mottling on a few orientals)
Until I looked a litte closer at some Golden Splendor strain coming up....not looking so hot...don't know if it was the wierd winter/spring or the recent hail or VIRUS or what....any thoughts?
(I dug them up and banished them to a pot in the hinterlands to see what they will do (I can't have them infecting the other lilies, but it was so beautiful in bloom last year I hate to throw them out without cause)
There was no evidence of problem last year on the one that came up and bloomed. (the others of the group sulked and stayed small and didn't bloom or didn't come up at all last year)
Any advice/recommendations gratefully appreciated.
