Debbie, I go through this every year. I put in so many bulbs, and I have to keep the bags or I don't know what I've planted.

I'd forgotten about the Fata Morgana until it bloomed with fabulous double petals... definitely prettier in person than in the photo. It is no standard asiatic. Another Costco bulb. There were "Elodie" bulbs in the same package. From the picture they are the same, just a delicate shade of pink. I don't remember if I planted them or if I shared them with a friend.

Since the peony blooms were so badly destroyed by the rain, I consider us lucky to be able to enjoy the lilies. Agawam is not so far from Stamford, so I guess you've been getting just as much rain. (The tomatoes seem to be thriving on it.)
