| The pink one is Baywatch. The white one at the front of the line is Gizmo. The big lilies are only 1+ year old plants. They are doing very well. Hope they don't get too tall, I like them 4 -5'.

| Wow. Those are huge! My one year old plants are never more than two feet tall. |

| Beautiful lilies. I have ordered a few and was wondering how close do you plant them? I see that yours are fairly close and I love the look. Only hope mine will look like yours someday. |

| I planted these 12" - 15" apart. They are in rows since this is not my landscaped garden, it's my production garden. Nice, neat, orderly rows here, ha ha. I think they grow straight because it's a good blend of sunlight and shade here, and this is the one garden I've got with good soil. My other garden's, I've had to haul in soil and soil amendments. |

May I ask what exactly are the names of the dark pink ones. I have a garden in full sun (iowa), do you think they will work there? Also how well do they spread, do I need to start with alot of bulbs to make a good showy lily clump?
Thanks |

| It looks like Starfighter to me, but there are several varieties nearly identical. |

| The dark pink ones (?) are Baywatch. I am talking about the pink ones, I don't consider them a dark pink. The red ones with white edge are Flashpoint and they are FABULOUS. They are NOT Starfighter which is an Oriental. Flashpoint is one of the new Oriental-Trumpet hybrids and it will do just fine in Iowa. Pure Orientals do not do well here in St. Louis. |

| Flashpoint is a beauty. First year in my garden and even my hubby noticed it. |
