Re: ID of bulb plz
I don't remember much about them, we had these about 14 years ago in our old house but I never grew them again. The lilies did survive under tree shade, but the reason for disliking them was that their flowering frequency was low. Most of the time it was just foliage. Although their light after-shave like fragrance still lingers in my mind :-).jdashraf wrote:Thx Farooq Sb. Are they Sun, Shed or partial sun bulbs?
