So far, this lily has been the only variety to bloom...


...but I have lots of them and they are non-stop.

I am unsure of what it is, though.  (Any ideas anyone?)

We had an early start here in Arizona.  This was in March.

Lovely lilies every one!! Nothing here yet. There was a Mayla bud yesterday but I was to busy today to look at the pond so don't know if it opened. Our spring has been so cold this year that everything is at least 3-4 weeks late. The rhodos are outstanding this year though. I will have to post some photos.
It's been a hard winter here. I have developed Tendenopaphy in my right shoulder rotater cuff and have to go to Physio. I also just got rid of a sinus infection after a couple rounds of antibiotics and I have mild arthritis in several joints. My body is starting to fail me and I'm not happy about that. I am trying to get as much done as possible in the garden but it's so much harder than it use to be. Definately time to scale back.

My lilies would boil if I used a metal container like Joey's.  Water lily soup.  :P

This is the third day. Laydekeri Fulgens is frequently first I guess.
Dianne,
I'm really not crazy, I just talk to my fish.

They are all pretty.  I just had my first bloom of the season open up this morning.  I was hoping it would bloom on the weekend so I could enjoy it.   @O@ @O@

Nice to see your lovely photos and here's my first bloom. This year it's Mayla. They are a whole month late this year. Colorado has been the first up until now but we don't even have a bud up on it this year.
