Thank you for all the nice comments. And yes, you all do seem to be very nice. :)

The lily in the previous pic is a trumpet named Ortega. It and Pink Perfection were 6' tall this year. For all the cool weather we've had this year, it sure helped the blooms last a long time.

Nothing at all against John Scheepers, but the best lilies come from the folks that grow and hybridize themselves. The Lily Nook in Canada and The Lily Garden (US) are favorites.

Anyone that is even a little bit interested in lilies should come over to visit. And jump in anytime! We're all happy to share the passion and patient with lily-newbies ~ everyone has to start somewhere. (I thought that something as beautiful and fragrant as an oriental lily surely must be tropical!) And you won't find any 'enablers' there. Nope. Not a one... ;) http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/f/lilies/all/
