Wanted - Surprise Lillies

Also known as Naked Lillies, Resurrection Lillies etc.  I looked on e-bay and they are expensive.  Anyone have extras for sale?

Hi Brian, I have some at our new place that I could send you.

I know nothing about them as far as best time to dig, etc. so I assume if I dig now it will be okay?

Let me know how many you are wanting and we can work out a fair price, etc.

Thanks,
Bonnie

btw, Happy Belated Birthday!

I have transplanted them in fall and spring both and they have always lived. Thought this would be good info for you.

Ah, ha!!!!  A good reason to come visit me.  I have a long row of them growing back in the woods that need to be moved.  Poor things just keep on blooming, even without much sun.

Let me know when you are coming this way and I'll load you up with some!

Do you go to the Covered Bridge Festival?  It's just a month away.

Bonnie, thanks for the well wishes.

Karen,
I never miss the Covered Bridge Festival!  My mom and her siblings attended/graduated from Bridgeton High School, so it is always neat to visit her old school...annual tradition.

I'll take you up on the lilies!!!  I'd like a nice clump for me and a small clump for my mom and brother.  Thank you so much!!!
I still need to hook up my aunt's TV antenna.  I'll just plan to stop by when I get to that.  It should be in a couple of weeks.

I'm a Covered Bridge Festival nut :woot:
We usually go every day except weekends, don't like the crowd.  We split our time between Mansfield and Bridgeton and of course eat our way through both places.  Our very favorite place to eat is at a stand in Bridgeton, down toward the school, they have the best walking tacos!

Keep in touch!

Karen,
When you go to the festival and enter the school, go up the stairs and check out the photos of the graduating classes.  My mom, Mary H. Zentko is in the class of 1944!
