Title: Lily for ID
Post by: Tony Willis on June 06, 2010, 01:40:09 PM
two pictures of a lily flowering for the first time for me. It has taken me so long to get it to flowering size that I have lost the label.

I think it may have come from China and be a species. I have only an odd hybrid and so think it is unlikely to be one of those.

The flower is about 10cms across.

Maggi thank you,it must be  woman thing Mrs W. said it was that as well! I cannot think where it has come from but sometimes things have been lying around for years before I get them going.
