Your Liliums look fantastic this summer Leena!
I don't know how it happens but althouth there is plenty of L. michigananese, I don't have any colony of L. canadense nearby (mind you that 'nearby' in Canada has a different meaning than in Europe).
But as far as I know, the inside can be reddish-orange, with more inclination towards a shade or other.
I bought a L. canadense-red form one year, which vanished fast from the garden and I am not successful at growing Liliums from seeds; it is something I surely must improve upon.
I planted all young seedlings in the garden like you advised Leena and they are still alive; certainly doing better than in pots.

Those L. canadense certainly are magnifient! The most graceful lily of all, in my opinion. I think it is pretty common for the face of the flower to be a lighter shade than the reverse.
Nice Lilium distichum! Not many people grow it, and yes, that's exactly what it does: come up with it whorl of leaves, and then sit there for a while before it starts to send up a flowering stem. I think they look like little palm trees.

Thanks Gabriela and Rick:).
There is something about this year that many lilies like, it is a good year for them.
This was the first flowering for my L.distichum and I hope next year there will be more flowers like in Rick's lily. They do look like little palm trees at first:).
I planted the whole seed pot in the same place and there are three bulbs with the biggest one flowering. I should dig them up after flowering and plant more widely apart so that the smaller ones also have more room. I hope disturbing doesn't set them back very much, I'm a little afraid of digging them but they can't grow big so close to each other.

Lilium ‘Tiger Babies’ - this was raised in the United States by Judith Freeman from Lilium lancifolium, the tiger lily, and Lilium regale. Large peachy coloured flowers, well spotted with deep wine flecks; they have a light fragrance.

A few more lilies are out.
I showed the shoots of this
L. pardalinum
hybrid emerging in spring: here it is in flower.
Another from the same seed batch; this one is not as tall but has a more elegant flower shape.

This dwarfer one has an attractive gold back to the flowers.
A similar one, but not as nice for me.

My martagon lilies went over very quickly this year with it being so hot and dry when they came into flower. I did manage to get a few pics. The job now is to dead head before they ripen seed. I have too many already and they are not easy to get rid of.

I don't do anything, Tristan. I started of with a few seed grown bulbs of album and cattaniae both of which were true to the parents. Neither have spots but the seedlings turned up all shades of pink with varying degrees of spottiness as well as pure white and dark and spotless like cattaniae.

Beautiful lilies, Roma, and nice genetic diversity.
I have too many already and they are not easy to get rid of.
If you don't use any pesticides, martagon section lily bulbs are very good tasting. They are better than asiatics, in my opinion, especially when eaten raw.

Nicely grown, Rudi. The dimorphic structure of the leaves that is always characteristic of the species is evident in your pic, too. See how the leaf size abruptly changes from short to long, midway down the stem.
