Breck's lily sale

I don't really like Breck's for plants but their lily bulbs are good. A bit small the first year but they do catch up by the second year. They have a buy $50 and get $25 off right now if you get the coupon through http://www.fabuloussavings.com/online/us/brecks/

And they have a lily I have not seen before that looks wonderful - Elodie Lily - "new double Asiatic Lily! In early summer, the buds slowly open to reveal layer upon layer of candy pink petals."

Has anyone seen this lily? I just could not resist...

sterhill ~ Bought "Elodie" and planted this spring. I actually like the plant better in person than the picture. Here is mine that bloomed last week.

Oh that IS beautiful - thanks for the pix!

what's the price on that beauty?

I believe I bought "Elodie" @ Dutch Gardens, paid $9.95 for 3 bulbs. I also bought "Desert Song" this spring and I can't tell you how happy I am with it! I can't seem to capture the clear cantalope melon color of this lily, it's just beautiful!

A another one of "Desert Song"
Still can't get the color right...it almost has a neon glow to it.

It is hard to capture, isn't it? But 'neon' sure fits.

Moby ~ Don't you just love the color? I was so impressed when it bloomed!

Me too ~ I kept looking at it and thinking 'wow!'.

My Elodie was a paler pink, but just as lovely. You're right, better than the pictures...

My Elodie is getting ready to bloom. Can't wait!
