Oh I like, I like. Good job you did there! Love that pink one. Next year they should have a nice cluster of blooms.

I adore #2 I am so delighted to see a fellow Lily fan in this area sharing their treasures. Do you know the cultivar of #2? Now if we could get just a little more sun :-)

Hi,

I am not new to lillies, but I've never tried to grow them seed. I know this will probably sound like the craziest question you've ever received, but please try and help me----Where are the seeds in the lillies? I have Martagon, Trumpets, Orietapet, Oriental, etc.

Thanks for any help,

Carol

If you've always deadheaded your lilies, then you probably wouldn't have notice where the pods form. Here is more information http://lilies.org/hybridizing.html

Here is a pic of lily with the petals fallen away ~ the thick green part is the ovary which, if the pollination 'takes', will swell and contain the seeds.

Hi "neighbor" - I'm letting a few of my First Class lilies make me some seed. Mabel Violet floats my boat. :-)

Blooming from seed from the same group as photo #1 & #2. Its yellow, all three blooms so far came out a different color planted 12-24-06 from seeds (Trumpet-Aurelian) I don't remember were I got/purchased the seeds. The label is typed, but no name.

mnorberry,

I think I might recognize your seed pack. I order seeds from HardyPlants.com and their packages look like yours.
I found a page on their site where they have your Lilium 'Trumpet / Aurelian Hybrids' seeds

Joy, you are correct. I went to their website and the information is the same as on the package. Thanks,
Mike

P.S. If during your searches, if you find a company selling orienpet seeds, let me know.

Kalama, WA(Zone 8b)

I'll keep an eye out for them Mike.

Joy
