I'm hoping to get this lily later this season or maybe next season.  Good luck with yours blooming soon.

Louis, it's growing like a weed for me.
Big 24" pot of compost, with Osmocote of course.
Started blooming a little over a week agao here at home.
The one at work started blooming a month ago.

I'm doing great Lou, driving by your way tomorrow on the way to Newport, RI to visit my hubby who has been there since the 10th with his cadets for Leadership Academy at the Naval Station.
Getting the 8am ferry from Orient Point to arrive in New London around 9:20. Want us to pick you up?  :)

We are stopping at a place on 138 (in RI) called The Farmer's Daughter, a way cool Garden Center.
Have you been there?  ?)(?
Then we are heading to Newport with any plants we find and maybe hitting a xmas tree shop.
Looking for curtains for our new house. And stuff. 
Supposed to be meeting Bill for lunch at one point. {:-P;;

We are catching the 8:30pm ferry back to OP.
(hubby stays in Newport until the 25th)

It's gonna be a long day!  :o

I have a friend who purchased one last month so hopefully hers will grow better than yours Lou.     Hopefully it's is not going to be a "dud" because it has a beautiful bloom! :(

Joyce was yours a nice size when you planted it last year?
