Paul--

That looks a lot like my fancy-schmancy Ditch Lily--I have a couple--growing in
2 different places but look-alikes.

Then there is the massive tall/big one yet to bloom...This clump looks like it
does nor belong in my small beds...

Last year--the stalks were 4' tall...the other one is is what I call--"Lily by the Stump"..
A denizen of my YUK bed--squished between the telephone-pole sized edging
of my YUK bed--and a stump.

Other than the size--they both look similar. Just that the Stump Lily is battling it's poor
environment (tight squeeze) and the Monster lily is in a bed with decent soil & space.

1--Stump Lily
2--Monster Lily...

Monster Lily WILL, definitely be divided this fall....It is ONE clump--so I do not
know how many divisions there will be. Hold your horses on requests....please!




Basically--this is what it looks like.
