Intercessor, you are so lucky to have a DW that allows you to do that! And such a posh set-up too! I see you use the plastic fruit/tomato tubs that I use too! They are perfect for growing in!

pard, I have some lily seed I got from lilyseeds (I couldn't stand the tension of not being able to grow them!), crosses mostly, I have had 3 germinate. 2 were L. monadelphum, they have had green grass for a while and look like they will be dying back soon, but they do have tiny bulbs sat on the surface. The others are Western American crosses, so I think I will be OK to leave them in my garage under a south facing window. I just get worried when I read of people growing them under lights, something I haven't heard of here, but perhaps our winters are not so bad. And they were so generous, I bought 4 packets and got 8!

PRODOFFPUSS is Sooooooooooo wicked! But we have a whole lot of wicked Loyal Guardian Army converts! I'll bet a tickle on that tummy will convert him too!

Just look at my L. philipinnense/poilanei/gloriosoides-pollen-smeared seed pod! It's 4.75" long (tape not at top), and getting fatter, pray to the lily gods for mild weather!
