Göte,
the pics are taken in the greenhouse of my friend, because my plants are outdoors and we have so much rain.
All plants are grown from seed of wild collected plants (Kroatia and China).
Sorry for the late reply!

Hans Hoeller passed away, after a long illness, on 5th November 2010. His posts remain as a memory of him.

They are indeed, as are also, the oxypetalums. Yours look quite informal in a clump John, nicer than my couple of rather stiff and single-flowered jobs.

Below a favourite of mine, Lilium lophophorum. This must be an early clone, the others are still a week or two from flowering.

And how's your "pink form" coming along, is it going to flower?

Usually they are stiffly upright. The informality is due to persist cloudy weather. And now the weatherman says rain until Saturday - 40mm last night and 35 more tonight and much the same forward.

I like the lophophorum "lanterns" before they burst open. :)

That is highly variable. Some never form lanterns, some stay a lantern all the time. My very limited experience is that the lantern ones are shorter.

Interesting, I have never seen ones that burst open. Can you show us pictures sometime?

I only have L. l. var linarioudes which I think is less attractive and more spindly than the type. It doesn't really make a lantern at all.
