I can get a really good deal on some oriental lilies that are precooled. All of the information I've read on the net says that they can be frozen around 28 degrees and thawed slowly for forcing later. Has anyone had any experience with this?
I've had good experience with orientals as potted plants for market sales, but never tried to freeze them. Just planted as soon as they were received. Since I have access to a good deal right now, I was thinking of purchasing a larger quantity to stage across the season.
If anyone has experience, I'd love your thoughts on this.
Thanks in advance! |
