Midwest Lilies 3

This one is new to me this year ~ Nepal (not to be confused with the Lily of Nepal)

A better pic of Zagora. I should have waited until it fully open, much nicer looking ~

Artic Ice

Lady Alice

unknown name - picked up from a Walmart end sale 2 years ago, last year they only reached a foot or so with 1 or 2 blooms...much better this year, over 2 ft. These are the last of the bloom flush.

EDIT: This wasn't 'Samur'. It was another 'Aphrodite' that was later than the others. I planted them with 'Samur' and those haven't started blooming yet.

Moby - what kind is Zagora? I really like it!

Yea!! more lilies! I planted 60 some lilies today. I'm beat. Of course I weeded while I planted and I moved several things around. Kbaumle, my Samur is blooming at the moment too. I started playing in the gardens about 7:30 this morning and quit to go in and have lunch about 3 pm. Right before I quit it started raining and boy did we get some really nice rain! Just what everything needed. Now, if it clears off I might go out and pull some more weeds and or grass.

One thing about the lilies I planted today. These were the Asiatic, Oriental and LA collections from Gilbert Wild. These bulbs were really nice sized, acutally some were really large, I was quite pleasantly surprised. Now if the majority of them bloom true I'll be really happy. ;)

As late as those bulbs are getting in, they're bound to be pretty stubby ~ which I always find terribly funny. I have one that (if it's lucky!) might be 6 inches in full bloom.

Zagora is an OT.

Moby, I have no doubt that they won't do much, if anything this year. That's ok. I can wait. Now, I just have to get the rest of everything else in the ground....

I have no idea who this lily is or a couple after this.... but this was kind of pretty...

Diann

This is an old one Connecticut King. It's one of the first lilies I ever planted.

This says it's Samur...

This is Grand Cru

And I have no idea who this is....

That's it for today... We'll see who's open tomorrow... My daylilies are begining to start to pop, so....

'Treffer'

kbaumle, I just planted Treffer yesterday. :) I think I have it planted somewhere else, but as per usual, it's tag isn't with it.

Yours is a keeper! :)

Diann

I was way behind on this thread and sure had fun catching up with all these beauties. Here is my first bloom to open on Silk Roads.

I seem to remember that Trumpetor had more pink last year.

Royal Perfume does smell wonderful

This Regale I've had for a long time.

After looking this one up, I decided it is Triumphator.
