Vase-ful of Eurydice sitting in the window. The stems on these few survivors were so flimsy this year, I decided to bring them in.

Thanks for posting the pictures! I have all three and like mine they look different from the Lily Garden catologue. Don't you think everything is orangy? I wonder if it's the northern climate. I'm in zone 6 in CT.

Hi lepages -- Ariadne has never been very pink for me, though it does take on more of a pinkish hue in evening light, I've noticed. Karen North seems pretty much like the tlg catalog to me -- maybe a brighter orange, though, I suppose. And my Eurydice isn't at all orangey. If it looks that way in the pic, it's misleading. Is your Eurydice orangey????

I'm sorry if I mislead you regarding Eurydice, I was talking about Araidne and Karen North. Both are orange in my garden, I'm thinking that it has something to do with the soil since alot of my pink daylilies are more peachy than pink. I planted Eurydice last year and haven't had a bloom in my garden yet. They were damaged last year and didn't bloom. Hopefully they will bloom soon, yours look very pretty.

Wow!! Keep them coming! :) Very nice everyone!

Vancouver, WA(Zone 8a)

More spectacular lilies of all kinds from everyone. I've been short of time the last week or two and I've missed commenting on a whole thread!
So, let's see- Thanks for the SW Lilies link-one more place to drool!
And, I'd buy that Lolly x Viva cross, too!
Blood tiger is one of my favorites. I love how dark an orange it is-more red-orange. I'm going to get more of them this fall, so whoever else is planning to get some, leave two for me? ;)

I'm still working on the Asiatics...Here's a Zeus

Circus crowd. Funny, I hadn't paid attention to how many red and orange lilies I had, or they're all blooming earlier than everything else...

Here's one that I thought was kind of a fun picture-backlit Rosepoint Lace, with glimpses of Ariadne behind. I'm going to be moving these again this fall.

Oh Susie, I love the way the light shines through on that Rosepoint Lace! :) Quite nice! All of them are quite nice, though. :)
