    Those are gorgeous and so many different ones. They must really like you and where they are to bloom so well. Do you have multiples of each color?

    THANKS!
    Yup, of some I got quite a bunch, but there are one or two I only have 1.
    E.g.... the last one on first row... I call it "tiger"... won't multiply at all!
    But I am happy my oriental (and thus, fragrant) one is doing very well... (first two pics on last row).
    They are very fragrant.

    Cal, that oriental lily is fragrant, I just happen to have mine flowering right now. Mine look just like those. I got them a few years ago , no name on the label, just oriental lily,and they are my favorite flower in my whole garden. they have stems that are at least 1" in diameter and approximately 5' tall, you can smell them 50' away or maybe even more.

    Very lovely lilies, you guys! I can almost smell those.
    Calin, you have an extensive and varied collection there. You must feel quite proud. They are super.
    Well done, mate!

    Calin & Carolyn Keiper--Your lilies are beautiful. Do either of you have a problem with red lily beetle?

    I have never had any kind of infestation of any kind on them. they are the easiest and most carefree plant in the garden. They just don't bloom long enough.(like all summer)!
