Joan ~

Is she ever!!!! I am not a huge fan of orange, but come on...who could not love this lily??? Striking....OH NO!! Now I am going to have to find a place to show off this beauty....in a garden with a very different color scheme. Oh well, this is why I love gardening....a never ending challenge - that's fun!!

Thanks for sharing! ~Jamie

Joan,

I have one of those in my garden. Got it at the HD I work at. ORANGE???? Of course!!!

Mine is about 3-4 years old now and it sure has multiplied. They di not grow any taller than maybe 18" or so. Theit bulbs sure are shallow, though. In the spring, some critter had dug them all up and they were laying on top of the soil. I just pushed them all back in with my fingers--and it still bloomed beautifully.

Here's a picture from 2004.

Well, I sure am happy to hear that they can take that abuse and survive. We have tons of squirrels around here, which so far haven't got into them.

Nice to know that they will go forth and mulitply so readily. laff
