It's wonderful I love the color. I didn't know you could grow lilies from seed. I may have to start visiting my neighbors more often!

I didnt know you could either.....This is my first attempt.
I also figured out you can pull the bulbs from asiatic lilys and they grow just as well as mom.
Asiatic lilys multilpy after blooming and I gather them and plant more ..They are wonderful plants.
Blackberry has straight up stems like a gladiola.
