Let's See New Lilies Sprouting!

One great big Sprout I've. :))

Hurray!

Ours will look like that in another month.

Give me 2 monthes then.

Naw... it won't be that long. I dug lilies the last 2 days for our lily sale this weekend and some had new shoots as long as 2 inches.

Thanks for sharing, LL. It's nice to finally have a sigh of relief that Spring really is here!

Moby, long time no type, last time was during Lily season--seem a long time has passed. Brace yourself folks, spring is really here to stay. :) I'll post more pix of lillies the next few days.

Almost brings a happy tear to the eye...

What a great picture! Love the little bluebird! We don't even have robins showing up yet, so spring is still a ways off, drat!

Well fo rsome reason my Easter lilies are the first ones to come up. I ordered 25 more bulbs that should be here on Tuesday. Soon that corner will be all white beautiful amazingly scented lilies.

And a close up of the bunch. I bought this plants last year in bloom and after they were done blooming I put them in the ground. This year the came up with lots of new plantlets; unfortunately some of the little ones were chopped down by the lawnscaping people.

You will absolutely love it. Their fragrance is unique and so natural and beautiful.

!st one noted breaking through.

Isn't it a wonderful sight? Spring is on the way!

WahhhhHoooo

Though I know the present temperature isn't sustainable yet, 68° certainly lends to the credibility that spring is here.

jmorth, that's a good point. Even down South until Good Friday we still have a 50/50 chances of getting some late frost. Though, lilies are tough down here. They don't seem to mind a little frost here and there.

I'm jealous!

I'll share via pix, lol.

Lookin' at 44...above! Nice!
It will drop back below zero tonight, but we're headed in the right direction. Thanks Mother Nature. Time for her spring clothes, no more winter cloaks.

I cheer for the right direction.

Cheers!

Lilies loving this spring weather. I did thin out this bed last fall, hard to tell I did.

Lily sprouts galore!!! :) What variety are they please?

Gotcha a few lilies there, cattjovi! Maybe time to do the local market. Potted lilies go for amazing prices, here.

These look like Buggies lilies. It's odd because there are lots of lilies in this garden but not one showing yet.
Are these really early lilies or something I forgot I planted.

Just had enlightenment. 4 years ago I planted Fritilarrias there. They were moved( maybe not all ) but nothing has come up there since until now.
I think they are Frits.Not lilies.

Looks like lilies to me.

..to me too. :)

Thanks for the support. Its got to be if you say so. These are Buggies asiatics. Ther isnt anotherlily from her thats come up so early. Disbelief made me try to make it another plant.
You see I just HAVE to be right lol

Did you ever get Vulcan from Buggycrazy? That was always the first of hers to bloom for me.
BTW, this could be a big year for Lisa as her lilies will be at the Chelsea Flower Show in May. The grower hopes to make a video of them and post it on UTube. Now wouldn't that be something?!!

All the asiatics I have from here were in a collection ,none named. I will look at her website to see if Vulcan looks familier. Thanks

Vulcan wasnt it.
This is the best I could do as far as a photo of the early one. Its orange.I took this off of a larger photo and its not great but all I have.

I dearly hope Buggy's beauties do well, she certainly deserves the recognition.

amen

agreed

DITTO!!!...I miss her and her incredible lilies. Buggy was (is) in a class all her own.

Same lily as the one posted on the header today. :)

Wow, that's moving right along!

Thats what I love about lilies.

This area will produce a sea of red Asiatics in May.

Had to go the hardware store in our little town over the weekend for a little can of paint, and when there found the seed and plant rack. Picked up a pkg of 3 Oriental Lilies, all fragrant, assorted colors for $2.99. It will be fun to see if I can ID them, and if not, no big deal, still a great deal, IMO!

Can't beat that!
