Hello!

What is the best way to propagate new lilies from my old ones? Seeds, tearing off a leaf and growing from that, or from the bulbs? (Or a different way I haven\'t heard about.) I would like any suggestions on doing this.

I understand lilies become weaker and more susceptible to viruses the older they get, so I would also like to know which of these methods will result in a virus free plant. The lily I have is very special to me, and I don\'t want anything to happen to it that I have the ability to prevent.

I\'m unsure of the name of my lily, but it looks like the one in the image from the internet I\'ll include.

Thank you kindly!
