Whooweee!  Two large raised ponds of fabulous lilies.  Am I right to say those large round cupcake like pads are a Victoria variety?

Which I had so much room.  :D

Yes, you're right Annette.  They're not quite as large this year because they are in smaller pots. :)

Thanks to both of you ladies! ;D

Hi Annette.   I've had several blooms from both of the cruziana lilies and the Longwood Hybrid. :)

I keep checking your pictures & drool each & every time 8-)~ 8-)~.  Did you have both of them last year?  I remember only 1 & the raised beds look new, too.  If I had lots of flat property I'd be hiring you to build one for me  ;) :)

Oh those Amazonias?  I remember seeing them as a boy in a Tarzan film. Loved them then and still do.  I knew I should have made a larger pond.

They weren't kidding about your ponds.  Those are huge.  Great water lilies.  What type of lily are those huge pads from?
