I planted these lilies a couple years ago. This year, they came back with a vengeance and look like this without any effort or pampering. Seriously, I did nothing and I’ve got these gorgeous 5″-6″ blooms. They’re not even staked. Can’t say that about many flowers, especially those with such a big payback!

I have two other lily varieties coming into bloom. One is an heirloom from Old House Gardens. I will definitely be ordering more lilies.

Sadly, my dahlia experience hasn’t been quite so rewarding. Every shoot from my dahlia tubers has been devoured by snails and/or slugs. Hey, does that imply lilies are snail-resistant?
