Holly,

I have "Oats" in a slew of 4" pots--several in each--so one would have an instant clump.
Those were from early Summer (BTW--today is the last day of SUMMER) when I was pulling them out of my YUK bed--they are ALL OVER that bed! All have to go! Can you see that whole bed becoming home to these "Oats"???? It is bizarre!
Big job pulling, or uprooting, all those little blades.

Holly, I would not re-pot the Lilies you have, but i would put them in a protected environment, though, of dig them in as you planned.. I know I kept mine one year smack against the house foundation on the S. side of my house and threw a pile of dried leaves over them. They all made it. Still waiting for them to bloom...it has been many years....They are now, maybe, the size of a clump of "Stellas". I have them behind my bird bath.

I put my 2 Brugs on Craigs list a few days ago. NO replies so far. I guess people just don't know what they are. I am reaching desperation on these.....
Will try and call Cylburn today....Lost cause--probably.

ANY TAKERS AMONG YOU ALL??????? I would hate to let this one go to the frost!
