Well that is just so cool Sean!  @O@  Sure hope it eventually makes it to market.  I would love to have a hardy lily of that colour as would so many others.  I expect the demand will far exceed the supply for some time to come but I will definitely join the queue when the time comes.  Thanks for letting us know.  emm

Oh am excited. I wonder how long before it can make it to be sold. I don't really understand all that complicated stuff but it sure sounds like a lot of work and knowledge is involved.

I'm sure that I'm not the only ponder in the cold country to wish we could grow a blue hardy.

Wow! I bet it will take years before I will ever get my hands on it. That is okay I can wait. But I will have it one day.

LOL I was just thinking the same thing.  ;)  But I'll be first in line anyway.

Congratulations to Mr. Pairat Songpanich! What a terrific thing he has done.

Very interesting..something I always wanted to do, but was never successful in my attempts.

I suspect it will be 3-5 years before it will hit the market, but I'm getting in the Que too!

One of the emails from the members stated that now we'll have to wait and see if this can survive low or freezing temperatures. 
Definately hope that it will survive in freezing temperatures and isn't a semi-hardy. :-\
