I'm been trying to buy some of these magnificent Starburst lilies pictured in the third post in the link below, but it seems that maybe Buggy Crazy is the only company that carries them and they are out.
(The lilies are orange and white like a dreamsicle)
Does anyone know of another source I can check with?

Looking for "Starburst" Lily
Buggycrazy only sells in the Fall but leaves the pics up for reference. Sales begin in mid-August.
I was wondering are these liliums? I am trying to find it in plantfiles and the pic I found looks nothing like those on the forum. I wanted to research them for my garden! ; ) Thank you for your help!
Thank you,
Dana
Yes they are liliums. Buggy's lily "Starburst" is not the same as "Electric Orange". The color is somewhat reversed on "Electric Orange"; that is, the petals are orange with a white edge while buggy's "Starburst" is white with an orange edge and also a cute orange center. I prefer buggy's "Starburst" over "Electric Orange".
"Starburst" should be available this fall from buggy provided they grew well over the summer.
I don't know why I wrote "Electric Orange" in the title! I got it mixed up from a name mentioned in the thread. It is NOT the one I want.
I DEFINITELY want the Starburst!
But now I can't change the title in the thread. I hate that :-(
Maybe Admin will change it for me.
Just click on the "Contact Us" link at the bottom right of this page and ask them to change it.
They did!!!
Aren't "The Powers That Be" at daves wonderful!
Now if they could just get me about a dozen Starburst lily bulbs....
Thanks y'all!
Wow - another must-have lily - LOL thanks everyone!!
I planted a Starburst last summer and am so excited about seeing it bloom for the first time. Buggycrazy does have some unique ones.
Please post us a photo!
This will be my third year with Starburst and it's a wonderful lily!! Everyone should add it to their collection. :)
Hi again everyone. I'm not planting any new plants or bulbs this year.
BUT, if anything were to change that, it would be this lily. I never was able to locate any. And I can't find any now. Was BuggyCrazy the only supplier of this variety?
Everything else named Starburst is totally different. (And that red and black is NOT what I like. YIKES)
I wish I had a bed full! Can anyone help, because Google can't!
As far as I know, Buggy was the only one who had it...
You mean I'll never, ever have it now...
How can such a thing be?
Good things come to those who wait.Hoping there will be a grower who offers some soon.
Even if Buggycrazy doesn't offer it again, a lot of us have a bulb or 2 and hopefully they will multiply well. Mine are not to the dividing stage yet, but maybe in a couple years. Keep checking back into Buggy's site, you never know.
