Lilium Michauxii

They are pretty , the nasty beetles are a pest !

Love this one as it doesn't mind shade, have it growing in the wood too, soooo easy from seed and flowers the second year, last year I potted up some of the little bulblets from the stem and they're growing away too, yes its just the flippin lily beetles that spoil them,never seen so many, good job the daylilies aren't affected :-)

We call them Tiger Lilies... My mom had a large stand of them below our front room window...the hummingbirds loved them! When you mentioned the little bulblets a light went on! We used to play with them as children ~baubles and beads...much to my Mom's chagrin!

I'll think of that every time I see those little bulblets now :-)
