Asiatic Lilies

It's the middle of July and the Asiatic lilies have just started making their appearance. These are great plants. Why?

1. The flowers are truly exotic ... showstoppers.

2. The plants are super easy and inexpensive - just buy the bulbs, plant them in the spring, that's it!

It's easy to forget or not get around to planting bulbs in the spring. However, its well worth the minimal time and expense involved. I also really like dahlias. However, unlike Asiatic lilies, dahlias should be dug up every fall unless you are in a very mild climate.

Here's some more photos of the lilies that have just started blooming. Amazing plants!
