I won’t be seeing any Lilies flowering for a few years but here is a photo of some Lily seeds germinating a few weeks ago in the GH on our allotment. There are many more now than when I took this photo but I haven’t taken another recently.

I have seedlings germinating in all the pots in the tray except for some bulbils. They are taking their time! These seeds were sent to me by a Folian in the USA, orientallily.

Must’ve missed that, Amarylis, sorry. They look really good. Another fascinating seed project, I really look forward to seeing how this goes. I’ve got a bulbil on the go too. :)

I was indeed referring to the post itself, didn’t want to come across as rude as it looked like I ignored your post where really I was writing my reply while you posted yours. ;)

The lilies are blooming!

Those are very nice lilies OL.

The lily season is almost over here in my garden. I have posted a few in my Flickr Photostream.

Edited for the link to work.

I need to get some photos of these blooming, but here they were several weeks ago. These are those early lilies I began this thread with. They’re now over 6 foot and flowering a deep red. Such triffids!

Just for you…
They’re not as tall as the Cephalaria gigantea, but still way over 6 foot. :)

Really lovely, Tralamander! :-))

They are all very pretty. Royal Sunset (second pic) still have the wow factor. I love that lily.

May I ask the ID of the third pic? I have one like that and remain NOID for years.

sgardener… Yes, that is Royal Sunset… one of my favourites. To tell you the truth, I just went out clicking, not paying a whole lot of attention as to where I was aiming but… that third picture is an LA… I’m sure of that. I’m thinking, Purple Diamond? Did you have that growing in your garden? I can’t be positive about it though. The one below is Champaign Diamond and I love that one to bits. It’s really quite fragrant in the evenings and early morning. An absolute delight. Oh, and you and your NOIDs. When I first heard you say that term (well, read it), I honestly thought you were talking about some sort of drought resistant genus or family. This time, I got it right away! Hey, that means I’m learning, right?

Amarylis… glad you like the pictures. I didn’t realize they were opening on this thread now. I’m just glad they’re there! Remember my previous attempts at posting in threads? Little boxes with little ’x’s sound familiar?

Thought I’d join in the fun. Only Asiatics so far – and some past their prime – but the “big guns” (Orientals & their hybrids) are on the way!

Here’s “Pumpkin Spice” – it’s a subtler shade of orange…

Unknown/name forgotten white one – I have several of these so wish I’d kept better records as I really like them.

Such lovelies.

OL, thanks. LOL! Yes you are learning. The coloration of your lilies are superb. Your weather must be nice not like us here. We have had heatwaves. Horrible year for lilies. My orientals’ buds are scorched, not to mention that the leaves are dropping. And you take great photos. Hope to see them publish at QB just like your Orientals.

T, trumpet regale and regale album are my absolute faves when it comes to fragrance. Your mum’s white one could be regale album.

Louise, I like your lilies. Pumpkin Spice is nice and so is the no name pink.

The photo is of Pearl Jennifer.

Dalia, I believe. That may be spelled incorrectly but it’s close.

I’m in love. Blue Eyes.

An asiatic that came out of a mix. Lovely soft colouring.

Love this asiatic.

Some beautiful photo’s (and Lilies) here… Mine have just been so slow because of the dreadful weather we’ve been having. The Stargazers been blooming for about a week, as has Rosalla’s dream, but all the others are still thinking about it! On the upside, the Lily Beetle are nicely under control!

I love all these beautiful Lilies! :-)) Makes me impatient to see my seedlings in flower!

LouiseM, when I come into this group, your photo still shows the turning ‘flower’. Weird.

And I tried choosing a photo of ‘After Eight’ but Google just craps out on me.
