One of my lilies has bloomed - not sure which kind it is, but it must be one of the LAs or OAs or OTs, something like that. It isn't an Oriental, i know that.

Things are more on time than last year. Around this time, my lilies were finished last year but this year they're in all their glory. :)

Ya, what's up with the Mums ?

I bought one this year as I wanted fall blooms, and it's starting to bloom now.......

Good grief !

My orientals are just starting. I got out of my car the other day and knew immediately that one had opened on the other side of the yard, lol. They're pretty potent! Everything was early this year, although lots of them are suffering in this heat and lack of rain.

After the first round of blooming is over, if you trim the mum's back some they should continue blooming through fall anyway.
