Kiseta, forgive me for missing your question about lilies in a two gallon pot. You can indeed plant three in one of them, and indeed you will get a bouquet effect - I've grown one to a pot and there is no comparison. You may have to repot them sooner than if you have one to a pot, but repotting the little darlings is easy to do. And it gives you a good chance to refresh the soil. I am going to do just that!

Corey, the mother bulbs are absolutely enormous. I noticed when one pushed itself to the surface. Literally. I looked down at the ground and saw this yellow thing. Since I had buried it several inches down it was quite a shock.

I love growing Silk Road with grasses, to hide the somewhat in your face stem.
