Yeah!  The "Glorie" is about to bloom?  Remember what I said about that lily - it might be a Glorie or it might be a Hollandia.  Better take pictures!

The bloom appears to be white but it is just barely separated. Could be fooling me though. You can be certain I will take some pictures!

Can you post a pic of the Glorie? I got one off ebay and it's barely struggling along. (arrived with it's only pad snapped off and no roots) It's probably not going to make it. It's trying to put pads up, but they stay close to the tuber and are really tiny and seem to rot there.
Any suggestions to save her?

Andy, you will like Joey.. a pretty yellow and a very good bloomer!

Good for you if you're already getting a bloom on Gloire du temple sur lot.....some might get one bloom a year. 
Maybe Tammie had better luck due to the fact that her ponding season is longer than some.

Is it potted? Make sure it's potted, but don't cover the tuber with dirt. Lots of sun. Don't pamper it too much.

I got one bloom on my Gloire last year... But it had some babies too, so I potted them up.  Of course I didn't mark the pots, but it's the only hardy I remember putting in that pool. Could be a Hollandia tho... I have several more pots, and once I know for sure what they are I'll mark them.  Then I'll have more to share!
