Sunny Borders, I had to smile when you mentioned that Scilla siberica can become a problem. I have tryed to grow it 3 times, it blooms nicely the first year and never comes back. Maybe I should count my blessings.

I too have intermingled my daylilies with bulbs. They do a nice job of covering the leaves. Made a mistake, sort of, I planted Lilies in with them also. So I end up with the flowerless lily stems poking up among the daylilies, not a pretty sight.

One combination of lilies and plants I really like is the tall lilies with the tall regular purple coneflowers at the back of the garden. Then I have a clematis on a trellis next to the house for even more height.
