There was a hybridizer by the name of North (I don't have a first name). I know the Lily Garden has a couple of them. Can anyone point me to more information about him or where to find other cultivars by North.

Dr. Chris North. I'm trying to collect his hybrids as well. Am trying to duplicate his crosses but many were embyro cultured so I have lots of work to do. He used Edith Cecilia -which I cant find although I keep hoping ..... and Enchantment for his oranges like Peggy and Rosemary North.

Edward McRae's lily book has a few paragraphs devoted to Dr North...

Mainiac I also love North's lilys and saw some beautiful McRae's. I really want to get some of these. I would love to get McRae's lily book. I'm new to lilys so can't help you, but love them myself.

I wonder if they are more readily available in the UK...

Yes there are some in England but the postage is pretty high. I may try to get some though

Mainiac -- do you have a good source for lilies in the UK?

The prices on everything over there seem so high right now, because our US dollar value is so low. :0(
