The lillies are blooming!

[thejetskiqueen]

We have three different lillies in our pond and for the first time in history they are all blooming together.

 

[DrDave]

Beautiful! What are the varieties?

 

[thejetskiqueen]

Thanks. The yellow is Charlene Strawn or something, the pink one is pink grapefruit and the little fuschia one is attraction.

How come you have so few leaves? is that a varietal thing, 'cause my lily just sent first flower, but it has a ton of big leaves on the water. It's a hardy lily, very "blah".

 

[thejetskiqueen]

These are hardy as well. should they have more leaves? We haven't had the pond a year yet. All of the lillies except the attraction came from a coworkers pond. she has tons of lillies and lotus, which I am waiting to get. I do fertilize them is there anything else I need to do?

they look great they may just need more time...all i have is yellow

 

[thejetskiqueen]

Those are beautiful Case! I wish mine would put out multiple flowers at the same time. I have never had two of the same kind of flower open at once.

 

[DrCase]

just give them more time ,maybe later this summer

I had a strange lily come up in the pot with the pink grapefruit. I do have an attraction lily but it is in a different pot. What happened? The one on the left is the stranger.

 

[DrCase]

who,s your daddy............. looks great. wait to see what bloom comes next. ...........i want one

 

[thejetskiqueen]

ok, I have talked to the donor of the lillies and she said that the mysterious flower was a red flame lily and that those have been gone from her pond for a couple of years now. She was real excited to see it.

 

[pondlady]

The red are out.
