      The second plant to bloom bloomed today. Another autumn colored lily, this one a little darker colored than the one yesterday! Going down into the thirties tonight and supposed to be down to freezing tomorrow night. Could this be "dogwood winter?"

      There were a few more blooms today. No freezing cold in forecast for next ten days! With temps going up to 70s and sunshine, the greenhouse will be hot! The plants are really growing, especially the hardy lilies, so with hot weather I am hoping to be moving them outside.

      The weather outside is dreadful as the massive storm is rolling through. Still, the plants in the gh are going well, unscathed. A couple of new blooms today to share! The first Dauben bloom is a little small, but the next ones should be normal size. The Aztec Arrowhead has been blooming but I have not posted it so here it is! Oh, and the third or fourth bloom on the pink lily.

      Oh! You're so lucky things are blooming for you! It still looks pretty barren here. I had to content myself with building in a bog area this weekend so that I could feel like I was making some progress.

      Cortsetiere, things are not blooming a lot yet, but they should be soon. What are you going to put in your bog?
      Gray Cat, I had a store owner come by last week and he was amazed at all of the different varieties of lilies I had. When I told him there were many, many more varieties than what I had, he was stunned. Many have the idea that there are just the handful of varieties they see all of the time and do not realize that is often just the newer ones or the promoted ones. I have 10 more varieties of hardy lilies coming in this week and three more varieties of tropical lilies!

      Dauben and Tina have new blooms today. I shipped Rhonda Kay plants earlier this week and they had buds as well.

      They are outside, except for the Caliente pads in pic 4. We have moved almost all of the hardy lilies outside, and will start moving the tropical out this next week.
