Mine are just getting buds on them. About 3 weeks and they will be blooming. Mine get to about 4 to 5 ft. tall. I put tomato cages around them to keep them upright! Pretty colors!
Some of these are dwarf varieties so are only about 1-2 feet tall but the rest run between 3-5 feet tall. The yellow one in photo #5 will eventually have 10 blooms. I have never had one that produced so many blooms most run between 3-5.
I have one that is blooming in the greenhouse and none are blooming outside yet. I didn't know they ha all those colors. They are beautiful.
Absolutely my favs! Nice variety. I planted some this spring and am waiting in anticipation. Darn slugs ate all I planted in beds. I have a very hard time keeping the beauties because of them. Thanks for sharing yours.
What beautiful colours Toni.Are they scented as well? I've only ever grown one and after a couple of years it succumbed to the slugs like Jewell's.
Those are lovely things to see, Toni.How long have you had them? Do you have much trouble with the "Lily Beetle"?
Toni--Your lilies are beautiful! I love all the colors too. Photos #2 & 3 are particularly beautiful. In the Northeast US, we are plagued by the Asiatic lily beetle. It is this bright red bug that just gobbles up the lily foliage. I grow my lilies right next to my driveway so I can monitor the lily beetle daily. Sounds like Sjoerd is familiar with this beetle too.
Lovely Lily's Toni! I like #3 I am also plagued by Red Lily Beetles here, and they are almost enough to get me to tear out my Lily's! The red bugs are bad enough, but their larva munch on their leaves and are covered with their own 'poop'. Handpicking seems to be the only way to control them and, depending on the severity of the infestation, can be a disgusting job!
Very nice variety Toni. I have some also in bloom now, a white and a yellow. I've planted other colors, but no sign of them yet. I did have a super pretty pink & yellow one, but it's finished blooming. I am waiting on my Orientals to bloom now...
