    [​IMG] Hi Sandy,
    Beautiful lilies, mine have been good this year too. The Oriental lilies have larger ovate shaped leaves well spaced on stem & a heavenly scent. Asiatic lily has no scent & leaves much narrower & spaced very closely. I see you have mix of both, nice. [​IMG]

    Gorgeous I agree. I like the pink one in the middle best.
