This past Spring was the second year for these red border lilies. What started off as, I believe, 15-20 bulbs has turned into a mass(or mess). I dug up and gave away at least 5-6 dozen and accidently broke off another three dozen. This pic was made after all this thinning. I still have 40-50 plants. I love flowers planted in mass,but this is too much. Is it normal for any type of lily to multiply this much, this fast ?
I got it from the Wooden Shoe co-op a couple years ago..I think Neal did it. It is supposed to be AQ and it is more melon rather than yellow.
Oh man I wish I had space to do mass plantings like that!
Psudan, that is truly amazing. I wonder if I will ever be in that situation, dividing, diving and dividing some more. Who else has been a dividing fiend? But let's go to part 4, this thread is getting long.

Here is my Golden Splendor.Its the burgandy backs of the petals.
that makes for a nice contrast
psudan, if you are still dividing your reds, they can always come to Florida for a vacation *S*
Steve- Your gardens look fabulous. Sorry to be late noticing but for some reason I didn't realize there was a new updated thread. And I just get here and there is another already. This time at least I know it.
Here is one I've been waiting ..... the buds turned completely yellow. I thought it was burned from the sun or something but look at the flowers.
I like the bud color change.It lets me know we are about to have blooms.
tggfisk, that is 'Pup Art'. Mine is just starting here.
Thanks for the confirmation:) I fall in love with that one all over again every year.
That mass of red border lilies is stunning. I love lillies planted en mass like that.
