Even if you didn't label them, do you know what lilies you planted / ordered? Without doing any research, I'll take a stab at a few.....

Pic # 2 ~ Regale?
#3 ~ First Lady?
# 8 ~ Gran Cru?

Regale?~ Gran Cru? sound familar...thanks..:-)

Jody, will let you know about Pic. 4, but do know that it is an LA. Mine should be starting soon.
Or if I am ambitious will look up pictures taken from last yr.

Very nice to have met you at the RU

Maxine

awesome Jody, thanks for the ones you sent me last year, great pictures!!!

I bought Red Planet too...I wonder if one of them is Red Planet? I can't find my receipt...I have started to write down my plants here on Dave's in my diary...but I forgot to list these when I bought them last summer..bummer...I will keep looking for the list..it's somewhere in this mess...lol...I'll take more photo's today...I just looked outside and several more are opening...:-) It smells soooo good out there...heehee

Beautiful. I've got lots of buds, but it's early yet for blooms here. Lilies are my favorites.
Pam

You need to join co-op Pam since I join all of yours..lol...

I thought you said they were all gone on american meadows.

Way to go Jody! Glad to see you've plunged into lilies and are enjoying them. All are beautiful!

All the .50 lilies are...I was talking about my bulb co-op..lol..

Jody, can you tell which ones are fragrant? I've been on a search for early, fragrant lilies. I've read that the ones with L.langkongense genes often have some perfume.

Regale album..is very fragrant it's the white one in the second photo..you can smell them 10 feet away..yummy...

Oh I do love the regales. I have 1 stem that has'nt opened yet that has 17 buds on it! I can't wait!

You've got some beauties! In the 4th photo there is a light colored one with apricot tinged edges, behind the orange one, that reminds me of my Orania which just started blooming today. It is an OT. Here is how mine looks. In some photos it is more apricot, but mine is always very light.

I don't think that is Orania...it doesn't have spots. Here is mine from last year. Yours looks more like an Asiatic? Does it have a scent?

Hmmm.... looks like an Asiatic or LA... (the spotted one)

Love that pic, esw. :)

I need to go take a fragrance test on all of them tomorrow..lol..

Thanks Moby.
Sniff 'em for me JodyC.....mine are a LONG way off from blooming it seems!

I agree, it is not Orania and it is not an Orienpet. If its any consolation, I also have a list of mystery lilies. I wish there was an easier way to track down what their names are.
