Lilium 2009

[Ray]

Hi Paul R,my pic 0133 in reply 467 is also from a Angels Choir x Dotcom cross.
also like first pic in your asiatics.The only breeding going on here will be done by the bees,if I get some seed from the speckle's,will sow and see what I get.Most of my speckle's that flowered last year had stem bulbils so i will have plenty of clones.
bye Ray

Beautiful, Ray.  Your seedling is particularly attractive.  What a deep green throat, and the anthers look to be a good, deep red-brown.  Very harmonius.

[Paul T]

Very nice, Ray.

Ray --your lilium henryi seedling with the green throat is a stunner, congratulations with that, it really is a cool beauty.I also like your leichtlini.Mine turned out to be a hybrid, as the 3 seedlings to flower from it this year are all non-leichtlinii. I have ordered  some leichtlinii seed from the EU lilium group that should arrive shortly.There is a chance that a bee may have had a hand in the pollinating, but I want to be sure that I have the 100% specie.
Here are the 3 sdls just as a matter of interest.
regards Paul R

G'day 4moreaction--NALS had martagon daugava listed last year--I was lucky enough to get a packet, 14 are growing well, so, if you don't have any luck, see me in 3 years.

Hi Paul R,I don"t breed Liliums,the henryi seedling came from someone you probably know pretty well Rod Barrow.bye Ray

Thanks, Paul R ... these photos with a human hand included are a great help to relate the (large    ) scale of these  blooms.

LOL... You can then consider Yourself rather lucky... since it seems like it is very difficult to get seeds of this var.    ... I must say tha I envy You rather much... well I just have to bid my time and hope to get this beauty some how.... :O))
