First Bloom in OR
« on: May 31, 2014, 07:44:47 PM »
May has been a little warmer than usual and I already have my first hardy lily bloom, Comanche.  Another bud is just under the surface and I see a bud for Little Sue as well.  I also have tropical lilies which are growing fairly well.  I have already transferred several Rhonda Kay lilies from the warmth of the greenhouse into an outdoor tank.  Blue Star and Miami Rose are growing well in their little starter pots so I am hoping I can pot them up soon.  Pamela seems to be struggling this year.

That first bloom each spring is always exciting.  My first is usually my unknown WalMart specials, a red (probably Attraction),

Pretty & sounds like most of your lilies are doing well.

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)

Today I noticed that Perry's Baby Red is getting close to blooming soon too.  I potted up the tropicals Miami Rose and one Blue Star today.  I hope I can see a bloom from Miami Rose this year.  I'll mention that all of the lilies came from Kat.  :)
