2009 Lily Bloom # 8

The 'Dreamcatcher' I have is the one on your link from B&D. Upfacing trumpet. It seems like I have an asiatic that I planted called 'Dreamcatcher' too. Go figure. Have had the trumpet for quite a few years. It's like a glowing torch.

Your 'Bonbini' is gorgeous. Your second one could be 'Conca d'Or'.

Thanks Magnolia Lover. I do love lilies.

Speaking of naughty garden, I was just out in my garden and found evidence that George Slate has been sneaking around with the Flying Nun (aka Moby's Swan Dive). Well who would have guessed those two!!!

Let's hope for some pretty children!

Me too ;)

Moby, the Lily Register explains Dreamcatcher to be different than either of the ones I have.

Cute. They must have gotten loose, those two, under the influence of Moby. Lol.

Oh, its all Moby's fault now. LOL.

Just imagine all of the wild crosses and offspring that could be a result of Moby's naughty garden.

Oh dear... do I need to go check on Mistress, Tramp and Vamp? Maybe I shouldn't since it's already dark out there. No telling what they may be up to!

Well I guess there were no pictures this morning. Duty calls and I had to help my prince with service calls. (He's the Maytag man.)

When I got home I took a few pix of the containers on the deck. They are more attractive at night where you cannot see the other junk on the deck.

Red Alert just starting

Starburst

Just a noid that came up in my coreopsis

Surprise

Nice Starburst presentation.
Silver Sunburst is appealing.
It looks like some pretty convincing evidence you've accumulated magnolialover.

SERRADA - From Faraway Flowers ... Very bright yellow... can see it clearly from inside the house!

Not a great picture (taken early) - ORANGE ART (Also from Faraway Flowers)...

Yet another from Faraway Flowers. Hard to capture the color of this one as it's nearly black - DIMENTION

Pretty! Your a head of me too...I have one or 2 blooming. I'm patient.

Beautiful pix leighton

Goldfinch, that Starburst is something else. Not only is it gorgeous, but if that is all one plant, you must have more the 15 blooms/buds. How'd you do that?

Thanks Cathy. It's actually 3 plants - it's just the angle of the picture I guess.

Bred in Rochester, MN, Hugh Cocker's - Sunday Dress

Soireé

And the most excellent spring foliage of Soireé.

(Foliage is normal green now.)

pard,
where do you get those plastic labels you are using to mark your crosses?

'Sunday Dress' is beautiful Lefty.

Great lilies goldfinch and leighton. Keep them coming.

Great looking lilies everyone. Here's a shot of the Dreamcatcher lily I planted this Spring from the eFlowerGarden coop. Pink/white and very upfacing. Was only abougt 10" tall this year.

The lily to the left here is Scheherezade. I thought the one on the right was too, but it's something different. Couldn't get in to see if I have it labeled. Pretty, but the two don't look so well together. Any ideas on a name for the one on the right?

The last of Triumphator. This is the original main stem and it is 7ft. tall!!

Last bloom on Eudoxia....

nanny, I will mail you a bulb of White Henryi this fall. My clump really needs divided.

First bloom on Casa Blanca

Ooooo....I would just love that...dmail me if there is anything I can send you!! WOW that is soooo nice!!!!

Lordy that is purdy!!

Eudoxia...is such a nice color. Here's one I bought as Golden Stardust, but I think it's the same as Conca Dor. Really big.

nanny, I hope it really is White Henryi. That's what I bought it as and have grown it for years, but know there are a couple others that look a lot like it and are sometimes sold as White Henyri. Whatever it is, It's a favorite of mine and there are at least 6 big blooming sized stems in that clump, so I know it needs divided.

I think is one of the American series. I thought it had been lost to a late freeze a year or two ago, but all of a sudden it's back. Of course I removed it's marker, so I'm going to have to go back a few years to see what it is.

Well I think it is beautiful...yeah there is some confusion over that one but at least I see what yours looks like!! I really appreciate it more than you know.

Man that yellow is HUGE...WOW!

love White Henri I have to move mine.
Wish me luck.I cut it off last year,had to wait a whole year to find it again.
I grows in a diffaculy spot yto dig in. I only have 1 or I would share.

Have no fear, Lincolnitess, it's definitely White Henryi. I got mine from Old House Gardens.

(I got into the whacked out habit of lying on my back and photographing lilies against the sky - the neighbors look and say, oh there's that crazy woman again!)

Donna

Nice view there, Donna. I haven't tried that yet ;)
