I love lilies so much that I planted some in containers and placed them around the front and back yard and given many to friends and neighbors to grow.

I learned a valuable lesson - Not to plant any lilies directly into the ground due to voles.
I lost all of my Black Beauties, many Rio Negros, all American Lilies, and more of my treasured lilies.

So I now plant in clay pots with other perennials that are planted directly into the ground and cover the tops with wire cloth until they start growing.

Here is a photo of some Sorbornnes nestled nicely with blue Hostas.
