Lamby: Thanks for the pics on day lilies. I planted 4 lily plants last year and only one set came up of tiger lilies. Imagine my surprise this summer when all 4 flowered and I have bright yellow one, peach coloured ones and bright reds along with the tigers.. I had no idea I bought a variety. They are gorgeous!

Thema: Re: Hey Rose.. way to go girlie.. :)
skipinnz: Im not Rose either LOLOL....but you only put them in the fridge if you live in the tropics as I do :) it lets them think they are asleep and they will sprout as soon as you put them in the ground. NZ (not the alps where there is snow) could be either in the fridge or in dampened sawdust/woodshavings :)

Not necessary where it is cold weather/snow etc

Foxy Lady:I know I'm not rose, bulbs usually just put in with sawdust or woodshavings and kept in a cool place is usually good enough. Tulips are the only bulbs I've heard of being put into the fridge

Thanks everyone...I'll dig them up and seperate them...the bulbs I've pulled out are HUGE- never seen anything so big- someone planted them and left them there unattended for at least 6-7 years.....I don't think they are tiger lillies- but those sound cool! I may have to get some of those...there's two kinds, both green, one set has really long green leaves, low to the ground, and the other ones (which I think are day lillies) are taller with leaves coming out of a tall stem...the flowers look about the same...and the flowers are huge too and bloom from the beginning of spring right through the end of the fall..they are pretty flowers, the beds just a mess- way overgrown...thanks for all the help everyone!
And hang in there Bwild....we had a long draught and it was finally broken..if you read your music page a week or so back, I had some good ideas for draught-breaking!!! LOL

Thema: Re: Hey Rose.. way to go girlie.. :)
baddessi: Yes.. I would dig em up.. separate them.. and even replant the bulbs in fall.. Some wait till the Spring I suppose but, they start blooming earlier when they are preplanted.. :O) just whatever your preferences are..

sorry so long to answer.. I am here in the West so I am not online at 5 am as you all show to be.. Yawn.. hehehe my time that is! LOL

Anyone who can help me with lillies is greatly appreciated. I'm kinda a beginning gardener. There are two kinds in my gardens. Day lillies and er.....the other kind? I'll try to find out what they are..I just know that no one has touched them in years and they are HUGE! I'm off to work now, but I'll find out what they are and let you know when I get back.Have a good day

ScarletRose: hi- I need help- the house I moved into has lily garden on either side. They were planted years ago and neglected. those things are huge now. I wanted to just dig them out, but my husband seem to think they're great. So, being a beginner, I'm not sure what to do with them...My neighbor told me that they have to be dug up and seperated every year. Who knows about lillies- they are pretty, but they are out of control!!!!!

Thema: Re: OMG
Foxy Lady: r u joking?ants are cool,but they usually are not a big problem in the garden.do more good than harm.but if you really want to discourage them rather than murdererered them:

Turn ants away from your home by locating the place of entry and squeezing a lemon onto it. Then leave the peel. Ants will also retreat from lines of talcum powder, chalk, damp coffee grounds, bone meal, charcoal dust and cayenne pepper.
