...not sure it's 'me' but it certainly zings! Sorry, I don't have a name for the lily...it's huge and orange, and last year I meant to remove it..but I'm glad I didn't now.

I love the orange lily, Karen. Seems to be smiling at me on the screen.

Thank you all! I do like it, but more for its shock value than anything! :)

That's a great combination!

K I think we are growing the same Lily, Brunello it is a huge orange one.

Your welcome Mouldy, I do like bright colours......
24 Jul, 2013
Lol! Ok, I will, thanks! And thanks for the name too!

I've got something similar, but the tips of the petals are sort of pink.
It's a Lilium 'Pixie'

Sounds lovely mouldy!

Oh, it's lovely, but no scent, sadly.
Come to think of it, none of my lilies have been 'smellies'. :-(

No, the Asiatics don't have perfume do they. For that you need to get the Orientals I think Mouldy.

Thanks for the info, Karen.
It just so happens the Orientals are the ones the squirrels have absolutely devastated in my planters. Sob!

Oh no! That's really sad. Go and treat yourself to a couple of potted jobs in the GC Mouldy. Every gardener needs lily scent at this time of year!
