I just put in my Spring order in with Ramona. Her site is now open for Spring 2010. She has some beautiful new lilies. Here is a link to her site.

Faraway Flowers From Faraway Places-Open
Lots of nice lilies there. Always look forward to her lilies too. Have been over there browsing already.
Thanks for the alert! I've been looking, too.
Ramona invited my husband and I to her home and gardens when we were in Maine in July. She has a very wide assortment of lilies, hostas, daylilies, heuchera, clematis and other perennials and such beautiful gardens and even more beautiful property! I do love the bulbs she imports from England and love that they are all correctly named unlike other places.
She also grows many lilies in large pots to test them for the market here before ordering them for her clients - that really impressed me.
Ramona is now offering 'Kushi Maya' (limited quantities). Check out this review of it:

She has some really lovely things...
And she is a lovely and gracious person as well.
Thanks for the reminder, I submitted my order. I have a bad habit of filling up carts then snoozing and losing.
Faraway Flowers Shopping Cart = Fill and be fulfilled ^_^ Happy shopping you guys!
It really is happy shopping, magnolialover. I can sit and dream of where I'll plant them as I go through the photos.
There are most certainly some great ones to choose from. 'Elusive' is on my list and thos eJapanese Hybrids I can never get enough of! How about that 'Forever Susan'? I can almost smell 'Extravaganza' from here. Mmmmmmmm.
No I haven't visited that site at all yet pirl and pard. Lol.
I don't know what I am going to do with all these seedling lilies I have growing up. I don't have any room, but I still put in a Faraway order.
Sigh . . . we all succumb. At least it's a group "problem". LOL
Im often wonder if those OTs would last on a rooftop garden. Lol! I'd have a ladder available for fragrance browsing of course.
