I hope noone else bought bouquet lilies from T&M. Bouquet lilies are joy lilies under a different name. I had them replaced but planted them in the veg plot. They are in flower. The stems are six inch high and the snails love the petals. The advert said one stem would fill a vase. It would have to be a small vase.
Hello Frannerz lovelly, we grow lots of lillies, mostly in pots so we can smell them, We have a collection of tree lillies, your first pic is a lovelly colour, do you know the variety? does it smell? The others look like the ground cover ones I bought this year, no smell, but look nice, have planted them in two pots one each side of a bench, which has an arch over, New Dawn Rose one, Belgica Honeysuckle the other. Yes, you should dead head, any lilly beetles this year?
Hello 1runnybeak1 your lillies are first class hope mine turn out like yours .I have lots of buds on them now so fingers crossed they'll burst out it full colour soon.
