Back from vacation....

Magnolia, where did you get that Pink Cream? That one is real nice!

Why Buggy, of course ;) I really like it a lot. The pictures on the website don't do it justice.

Oh no! Look what it says on her site:

"Not available for 2008, early this spring the newly emerging bulbs were promptly trampled and mangled by a marauding dog that repeatedly broke into our field at night attempting to kill whatever it could catch."

Guess I'll have to wait till next year. Darn!

Rats:) I'm definitely going to get some stuff from Buggy this year. Ooh! and I just sent my check to PNWLS for a 2 year membership.

Really beautiful lilies everyone--mine seem to come and go so quickly so seeing all these here give me an extended season:lol:

'First Crown'

'Luxurious' a semi-double last year, single this year. The breeder said it can be weather dependent.

A weird variation on a yellow OT.

'Punkie Pooh'

This flower is huge. It buries 'Tropical Breeze'

Cool. :)

Oh love that "Punkie Pooh"

You sure have some nice ones, Mags.

Maxine

Wow, mags! Your yellow OT variation gives me the impression double OTs are soon to be seen on the horizon! Thats exciting! I agree with others sentiments on Pink Cream- lovely and special :-)

Mags,
Does that weird variation bloom that way every year?

I haven't seen it happen before on this one. There's always a strange thing or two going on round here, and maybe that is because I am noticing things more than I used to too. Who knows. I bought the lily some years ago and it thrives here, but it was some mix up at the garden center, so I just leave it without a tag. Some angles I got with my camera almost reminded me of a cupped daffodil (and I have a lot of those around here too) . I got this great name for a lily/daff cross a laffodil or how about daffolil.

Enough nuttiness. Out to see what other goodies opened after last nights rain.

a picture of a lily called Mt. Dragon asiatic. First time it bloomed since being put in the ground last yr.

Whoooooohhh recd. 1/4" of rain overnight, so sprinklers are going now. Have to water 1x a week here on this sand in order to keep things alive.

another one. everything looks so bright and fresh after that sprinkle.

Blackout asiatic

Great pic of Blackout Maxine, it realy show off that black heart.

Will post until my daughter gets here to help me print out 100 invitations to a family reunion held here in Aug.

Maxine

Another one.

Sabento O/T

Don't ask, as I don't remember where I purchased it. Have had it around 5 yrs.

Maxine

On more won't hurt, will it?

Menorca LA

I think "Black Out" is my favorite of all lilies.

'Queen of Hearts' from one of my all time favorite Buggy bulbs selections of the Queen Strain.

A numbered 'Queen Strain' Lily.

'Bali Hai'

'Griesbach Tetra Pink' a trumpet lily

Another bloom for 'Luxurious'...that double type deal I was mentioning earlier.

'Gambetta' much like Steve's looked, don't you think?

Almost missed this one blooming..
'Eyeliner' from Faraway Flowers

'Splash'

Nice ~ I kinda like that Luxurious.

Tough to get a good shot of this one, but I love it.
'Morden Butterfly'

A shot of lily mayhem

Magnolialover does the Griesbach Tetra Pink not have pollen or did you just remove it? I have it ordered and planned to use it in some crosses but if it is pollen less that limits it ability for crossing.

I love your kind of mayhem... :)

I pulled the pollen right away for crosses. Bought that for the same reason you did ;) Good eye peach.

Holy cow Mags, what is that thing growing right next to your deck?

'Godzilla', fitting, don't you think?

Truly!

mags, it IS hard to get a good shot of Morden Butterfly, here is one of mine.
