More Midwestern Lilies

Will try posting again and see if it goes thru.

This is what is blooming in my yard now.
Menoroca LA

That's a pretty shade of yellow Maxine. I like Avignon a lot too. I had one open this morning in my front yard that was not labeled. I think it is one of the Regales I divided and moved around last year. Not showing much rose on the outside yet.

Susan

Hurrah! Finally have 2 lilies open - one is an unnamed red asiatic and the other is Rosepoint Lace. I was hoping it was taller this year, but it's still kinda shrimpy.

Yea for you, Kooger!! Pictures? Pleeeeeaaase?! ;-)

in a minute, in a minute - just got home from work - patience patience LOL heading out now, then going for supper. DH thinks that's more important than flowers - what is wrong with his head!?! BRB

Supper before flowers?? I am appalled!!

I know, I know, what can I say? Here's the Rosepoint Lace...

and the red unknown asiatic...

Thanks for the pics, Kooger! Those are very beautiful!

I don't know what these men are thinking when they want to eat BEFORE we get to play in the garden. Mine is the same way! LOL

Your Rosepoint is especially pretty. Laying on the ground again for that one? ;)

pretty much, wonder if it's ever gonna get taller - it did throw up two stems and both have one bloom. (no Barney to be seen this time tho - he was trying to sniff out the rabbits under the shed) lol

One more. Samur LA
We NEED rain. Gosh is it ever dry here. Showers don't make it past Iowa this week.

Hi all, here is my shocking just started blooming 2 days ago

That's a nice mess of lilies, Angie. I wonder if they are siblings? ~
Red Dutch

Here is a not great photo of my Silk Road. Sure is a great lily!

Trumphator is a lot like Silk Road as far as size and shape of bloom.
It has a light pink center instead of the deep rose of Silk Road.

Here is a pretty yellow one that seems to have planted itself in the middle of a daylly bed. No idea what it is. Looks like an LA maybe?

Susan

Asiatic Jacqueline seems small this year. May have to move it.

Susan

Moby I can send ya a bulb or two. Email in about a month and remind me!!! I pop in and out here so I will forget..

Angie

Very pretty. What did he do ~ stick his head through the fence?? :)

' Spink '
I think Spink is a pink ,with a lisp and freckles

Shameless hot looking star shaped lily / TAG GONE ( snicker )

Starblazer
one of Buggy Intro
Bet Starglazer is in its parentage ?

Tazzy, your 'no tag' sure looks like my Royal Sunset.

Tazzy & all--LOVE the lilies! i hope this rain makes the ones I have in bloom declare themselves. Darn--too many of them misnamed and NOT Walker's fault THIS time!

Rubrum,
well i got some of it in frame this was a blind shot
very unhappy most are named wrong no tag or died
and i spent my wad on them last year,
because i knew with health and retirement
there would no wad this year or ever again ?
Oh well thats life ? remember the joke in the fifties
" Whats life "
-a magazine '
" what dose it cost " ?
- 25 cents
" I only have a dime ?"
- " THATS LIFE "!

After seeing Moby's Silk Road, I decided I must have one. I found a site, The Lily Garden, in Vancouver, WA, that has the bulbs. Has anyone ever ordered from them before?

Thanks, Cait

The Lily Garden is a great place to buy from. There was a co-op last year with them. I got some really nice lilies through it.

Mendy

Love it but I have no clue who it is about 5' tall

closer

Thanks Mendy. Cait

Jody - I may be wrong, but it looks like Lilium regale, check it out and see what you think.

Regale was my first thought also. Mine will be open soon...

I have the L. regale Album and it looked a lot like those except for the pinkish back on hers, I only got 1 bloom this year but man, did it smell good!!!

Here is my Silk Road, but it has already bloomed and bloomed, too hot now.

Sorry, I guess I am not in the Midwest, but had to post my silk road!!!! :)

Only the back of the flower petal looks like a beige color instead of pink.But this photo shows some pink.It probably is Regal Album :)

lol That's OK, rosep! Didn't you know the midwest covers practically the whole country? ;)

Hope these names are right. I did not take the time to double check them. American Heritage Orienpet.
