Lilium 'Mapira'

That's a deep coloured lily Anget.

I might transplant these into the borders, Linda.

Very dark , Ange, almost deepest aubergine isn’t it! Very seductive!!!😊

I have three pink Lillies that I planted end of last year that are in bud at the moment.

Kate, I ended up with a lot of new lilies this year and some have not performed at all. These are among the better ones and they make a good plant for contrast.

Linda, I have a few still in bud. A lot of them have been 'duds' and gone in the bin.

Superb shade. Ours are stuck and are refusing to flower!

Thanks, W'rose. That seems to be the way of it, this is a contrary year with my summer bulbs and tubers too. The dahlias have been a waste of effort here!

that is a stunner.

Out of my new ones, this is a favourite.
