This is supposed to be Muscadet- What do you think?

These are supposed to be Stargazer. I'm not sure.

mattsmom, that's how 'Muscadet' looks here in Wisconsin. I have never had that beautiful pink blush so often shown in pictures. Mine are blooming right now and look exactly as yours is pictured.

'Dizzy' is one I always look forward to seeing bloom. Don't you just love it?

Very nice folks!! :)

So many lilies, so little room..Just slows me down, sure as heck doesn't stop me...There have been such phenomenal pics posted this year and I keep saying "I need, I want, I just have to have"...

Magnolia...I believe you are correct about my Pizzazz being Scheherezade. Couldn't understand why the color was so "off" from what I expected from Pizzazz...Not sure if I messed up or if Lily Garden did...Of well...Also, my lilies are in Promix. Lily Garden site says cooler climates will affect colors, but it seems temp, light, soil and a bunch of other factors would all have some affect based on the variations we all get from the same flower sometimes from the same source...As long as mine bloom, I'm happy!...If I like the bloom, I'm thrilled, if I don't like it, it means I can pass it on to a friend and that makes room for another newbie.

Curiosity got the better of me and I added all the entries accumulated in the 8 page summer lilies thread to this point and found out that there's been 1460 entries with 13141 views.
If you add in Steve's first 2 reports threads (which, to me, morphed into the subsequent summer lilies thread) the grand total to date would be 1933 entries and 17356 views on 10 threads.

I think I've but two lilies left to bloom (rubrum and alba).
Pic features some of my Black Beauty colony.

I'd say your report shows there is more than one of us addicted to lilies here. And I'm not going to speculate as to who those people are right now. Lol.

'Black Beauty', solid as a rock and a beauty at that. One of my very first lily loves.

Putnam County, IN(Zone 5b)

I just added Blck Beauty this year and I can't wait until I have a colony!

Willamette Valley, OR(Zone 8a)

Wow! I'm amazed at those stats, jmorth. We do have a lot of eye candy on this forum. I have to catch up on my picture posting. I've had modem problems for some time and I hope it's fixed now. Here is a pic of some orienpets.

'Lavender Gem', how much more gorgeous can a bloom be?

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

I know fleur_guy, considering it's the 1st one for this year and to me it's perfect! I'll have a few more open in a few days so i'll most likely post again if no one minds.

This is a group shot...I think 'Avacado'?, 'Scheherezade' and 'Shocking'

Thanks Ticker!

I like love the looks of Lavender Gem. Thought I might be done with new ones for the year, but some of the bulbs I got from eBay and planted just a few weeks ago are blooming. They are only about a foot tall and have 2-3 buds each, but at least I get to see what they look like. This is Samur.
