Nice pictures!! :) Like that Pink Giant.. Eventho, Midnight isn't as dark, it's still very pretty. :)
Arlene, I will see what I can find :-) Not sure if I have any decent shots!
Love that "Oklahoma" and "Honey Bear"!!
^_^
Thanks, Steve
I was tending to only shoot the bloom and have started snapping the full garden just for my own reference.

'Bout time you coughed up some pics!
You still up?
Ercolano LA
I've been waiting so long for your pics, I couldn't sleep! ;)
The rain beat them unmercifully today,
One more just for you and then good night!
Original Love LA
Ticker,
It seems you're finally hitting your stride. As you would advise 'keep those pics coming.'
revclaus,
Landini, in my estimation, certainly makes an impression.

Blood Queen
Love that Blood Queen
All of them are so pretty! Orange Pixie is always a cute little one.
Grand Cru clump
I have no idea who planted a couple of these red ones and what looks like it's going to be a bright yellow one next to them. Funny how lilies plant themselves.
Martagons and others behind house. Lilies are opening very slow here.

This is a NOID that I think is the longest blooming lily in my garden, counting from the day the first bloom opens until the last. It is a very light cream, almost white color with apricot around the edges and some spots. Sure would like to ID it some day.
Gorgeous Maxine. The NOID blooms at the same time as Desert Song.

Thanks Jmorth. :) Nice stand of Landini and I agree, Blood Queen is nice. :)
Wonderful lilies folks!! :) Sue, I like that L.cernum, it's sweet. :) Susan, don't you just love Grand Cru? it always makes me smile. :)
Maxine, that is a nice stand of Martagons you got going there. :) Did you order them off line?
Diann
Traded for them many yrs. ago. Can't even remember what my end of the trade was.

OMG - I didn't check in for a week, then it took me another week to catch up. These are all so breathtaking!
lincolnitess - Loreto is really different. Those are 2 colors I wouldn't have thought would look good together but it's a great combo. Gotta get it.
Moby - Katinka is beautiful! Do you know where you got it? Pink Giant is unusual too - I just love it.
jmorth - Your pictures in the dark sure do pop....great eye. And Fireking is beautiful. It looks huge - is it? Blood Queen is also amazing.
Magnolialover - Midsummer's Eve is awesome! And so is Chippendale - do you remember where you got it?
TwinLakes - That Eudoxia looks good enough to eat - what a delicious color.
Ticker - Your Salmon Twinkle would look great in my peach border. I think I'm attracted to spots today for some reason.
llilyfan - Brenda Watts is so cheerful, I can see why it's a favorite. My cernum is blooming for the first time. It's such a dainty little flower. Can't wait til mine grows up like yours.
Thanks for all the great pics - every one is a beauty! I'm drooling all over the place. I can see more lawn disappearing by the minute.
I'm with Goldfinch -- this is just what I wish for when I check in with this thread, that people have posted a ton of gorgeous photos. I'm so jealous of those of you with the room to collect so many different lilies. I love the spotted ones too, and am also feeling a pull toward those peachy ones. And the white ones! And and and....
okay, I've only got two blooming right now. First, Eurydice. I actually have lots of these and with the cold and then wet spring there's a really wide range of vigor amongst them. Lots of stunted stalks and aborted buds, not to mention the ones that had the bad luck of getting shmooshed when a planter fell on them. These ones are doing good, though.
And here's Karen North. I really love this lily. They're doing just great in their first season.
oops. meant to post the close-up...
Lovely Laura! Those are really nice. :)
Both of the lilies you mentioned goldfinch came from the Lily Garden. Both new to me and I have really enjoyed branching out to the more species look for asiatic lilies.
I am checking out this show as I get time, since my lilies are blooming at home right now without me. Enjoying all of them.
