Lilly seeds and bulbs

Darren:

You could probably get seeds through the PBS seed exchange of L. formosanum. I know that here in Texas every seed that hits the ground comes up - they can be flowering inside one year's time.

Blooming time for these lilies hasn't arrived yet.

Thank you for the advice. Anybody know anyone supplying seeds/bulbs that I
can get into Mexico?

Hi:
There are mainly two species that will grow like weeds in such a warm
environment, longiflorum and formosanum. They may well reach flowering size
in two seasons from seed but they will do really well in acidic soils.
Lilium davidi and L . regale may adapt to heat as a number of the oriental
hybrids swarms, those that are forced in greenhouses for the cut flower
trade. All of them will be indifferent to winter rains if well drained but
will demand spring, summer and autumn watering.
Regards
Alberto
