Perennials: What new plants have you just put in the ground?, 1 by DonnaMack

Warrior, it's a small world! I grew Lilium White Lancer from Park Seed years ago. I had to keep it in pots in my zone here, I would start it in January indoors, and it would bloom in September, extending my season. Must do that again. I got a bunch of similar seeds from NALS and used to grow a few different Formosanum/longiflorum crosses. I had to bring them in for winter but every year they would produce more flowers.

Don't you love the way lilies and roses add color and scent and extend your season? I actually had to pull out my nikkis a couple of weeks ago to make room for something else. I just threw down the seed and they took. And I still had borage and feverfew rocking out near the base of Heritage a few days ago. I put feverfew plants around the yard to provide some bloom (actually dug them up from my old house) and they really did perform.

Cool seeing them with the autumn leaves.
