Me and my experiments, the planting medium is a layer of rice husk charcoal.

You can plant them any time you get them.

Yesterday i visited pride seeds and bought two more oriental lilies, they were largest in size i have come across in few years. In fact, i was lucky to find a lilium bulb so large that it had 2 flowering shoots, something i have never come across. Lets hope they flower good.

Are these different varieties from which market already offered in early November?

The three he is selling now are Totika (white), Medusa (red) and Tresol (orange), yesterday I planted 8 bulbs of each.
