As many of my friends know I have a large supply of Lilies of a few varieities in my front yard. They have been popping up from their sleeping grounds for about 2 weeks now. Well we have been around normal and slightly above normal temps for a few days and they are sprouting up all over and getting larger as well. This is the largest one so far. It has it's many leaves already forming and won't be long before this is 2 feet tall with many flowers soaking up the sunshine. Are your lilies starting to pop out? How far along are they as far as leaf growth etc? Or any spring flowers for that fact.

we still have a backyard full of snow, so there would not be anything sprouting up in any back yards in my area for a while yet. It is so beautiful to see flowers though.


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 34 in lilies  4 years ago

I had strawberries popping up through the snow and ice out back last week though. My snow is finally ALL GONE now. Wooo hooo!

My lilies are bout 7" tall now that they are done peeping and actually growing thru the mulch I put down on top and around them last fall. Won't be doing much watering either being the mulch has prevented any moisture from escaping with all the rain we've been getting.


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 34 in lilies  4 years ago

I have a couple that are maybe 2 inches tall so far. I removed the mulch lst weekend as well. Won't be long for the flowers to bloom.
Well kind of long but not really .

I don't have any lilies planted around my home. Between the dogs and the cats, they wouldn't last. I have to have roses with thorns to keep them away from them. LOL! I just wanted to stop in and give you a thumbs up for your lilies. thumbup Good job hon!


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 34 in lilies  4 years ago

Plant them away from where the animals run
or use a decorative fence to keep them out.
Thanks also. It's appreciated also.

Last week I saw some flowers blooming. Today I saw a bunch of daffodils blooming. I have voilets blooming in the yard. I love spring, the miracle of rebirth, the happiness of it, the joy of it. Its a wonderful time of year. Enjoy the rebirth of your yard.

I remember your discussions on Asiatic Lillies from last year. I thought we didn't have them here, but I have seem them in the nursery.
The only bulb type plant I have coming up so far this autumn, is a rather biggish "thing" with red flowers. It almost takes over like a weed & I am not that keen on them.


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 34 in lilies  4 years ago

All lilies I think love heat and sunshine. Mine thrive in partial shade as well as the ones in direct sunshine. They are beautiful. Here's a photo of my yellow ones from last year.

I don't have any lillies in my yard.sad

I don't have any sprinf flowers out either. I usually put our artificial flowers in my boxes because I have such a green thumb and I am the only one who will care for them along with our garden also. My husband and daughter just do not get into like I do. I put flowers pots out and put flowers in my boxes around my trees though. The trees are really leafing out good now. I am glad spring is here and summer is on the way too. thumbup


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 34 in lilies  4 years ago

See photo above for what one of my Lilies look like. This is not an Asiatic though. Those are smaller flowers but taller stems. We plant petunias and pansys in our flower boxes for the porch and deck and the back porch as well. I have a HUGE green thumb it seems.

I don't think I have any lilies, but there are things popping up out there that I have no idea of what they are.

I did get one of them identified as a form of sedum, but there are few more that I need to get pictures of to see if any of those 'in the know' at this one gardening site can help me.

I did find another form of daffodil (at least I think they are!) growing at the edge of the property/woods line and tried transplanting them out front today. They were very deep, though, and I couldn't get the hole deep enough so I don't know if they'll 'take'.

No big deal - everything I'm doing is free, so not much of a loss!


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 34 in lilies  4 years ago

I have a few seedums planted as well to attract bees and butterflies to pollinate my apple trees. I've got a Clematis sprouting up now as well as Columbine and others also. I think the daffodils can be planted about 4 inches deep or so and thrive.
