I planted several lilies from a specialist grower last fall. All seem to be thriving--except for LA Indian Summerset, which is showing mottling on buds, perianths, and leaves. Is this what a virus looks like? If so, I need to hoick it out quickly, before it spreads to the adjacent Eyeliner plants.
(I'm sorry the images are rotated. I can't seem to fix that.)
I'm not experienced enough to tell you. But i can say that if you go onto garden.org and post this in their lily forum, there are a lot of knowledgeable people on there with lilies, and more activity then this forum seems to get. Actually going through old posts on here, most of the people in here switched to garden. Org.
Thanks, nhra. I've been looking at that forum earlier this week and thinking I should register for it.
I sent these pix to B & D Lilies when I posted them here. Bob has already responded that he's 99% sure the problem is temperature swings + too much water. So I'll be shutting off that bit of my irrigation system tomorrow.
