Lily

[carolann]

Can anyone tell me if there is a site that I could look at regarding identifying lilies, I bought some bulbs and forgot to take pics of them. Silly me didn't ask when to plant them and the stall holder said just treat them like Daffs? one lot of bulbs already has shoots coming from the top but no sign of root growth yet. I have found one sort that I bought called Shocking but cant find the other one called Cobra, my SIL bought some called San Pedro and Canberra, we would like to know what type they are and a pic if possible. Thanks for your help.

When you mentioned 'Cobra' before, the name was familiar. I'm wondering if it was on the Beechgrove Garden. You could look at these specialists
hwhyde.co.uk
hartsnursery.co.uk

If there is green showing, I'd plant them now. Lilies do get planted at the same time as daffodils, but if they are growing already, I wouldn't wait till then.


Have just remembered where i saw it ;D

Thank you girls for all the sites you have found there are some beauties so now I want them all . Tig the Cobra lily is the wrong one but I have found out what type they all are now, the Cobra is the same type and a very dark Red with yellow splashes inside. WT some of the lilies are not shown as it is the wrong time of year but I have saved the site for future buying. to you all.
PS when it stops raining I will get them planted.
