    Few of my lilies have made it past the cool spring weather that had uncontrollable slug infestations the last two years. Even with regular baiting few lilies made it to flowering. Here is the first flower in a while. (With the very dry July some bulbs are recovering) Think I will have to include more lilies with the hostas. I really like the combo.

    Great combo.
    Sorry to hear about the slugs and weather keeping your lilies from blooming.

    I like the strong colour of the lilies against the paler hosta flowers.
