Hi all Lily collectors .. although I cant quite call myself a collector ... I got hooked with lilies after my very first Walmart purchased lily 3 years ago. I didnt expect it to be so easy to grow and how beautiful they are when in bloom. I always thought they are divas and will not tolerate a newbie gardener like me...

when I finally got my confidence enough to know I cant possibly kill lilies due to my ignorance - I have search for an online company to order from ... I found B&D lilies .. i ordered a few bulbs (what my pocketbook will allow) and had them on the ground this spring and wasn't exactly expecting to have a spectacular show from it since it will be its first season in my garden...

but lo and behold - I am so happy that the lilies have given me very beautiful blooms and even far more flowers than what I had expected. They haven't even reached its full grown height of 4'-5' yet but they sure put on a great show..

sorry for the long sentiments :-) just can't contain myself... btw - here are the pictures of my lilies from B &D
