Lilies in bloom (Lilium)

These are in a pot. They have done so well this year in spite of the Lily beetles!

I have had the job for the last few years spritzhenry, of picking all the scarlet lily beetles off the lilys Putting them into a suitable container with pin prick air holes ,also a few leaves for food and sending them to the John Inns institute ..for them to breed from them to try to find a Green solution to keep them off the lilies . I was going round my garden every day with a jamjar

You'd find plenty here Amy! You could have them with pleasure - I hate squishing them.
