These Candy Lilies ........
are drought tolerant too.
I grew Candy Lilies twice from Parks seed. Healthy plants all
winter, then some time in the spring, after the rains stopped -
totally gone. They never flowered. This was a long time ago, before
the deer , squirrels and rabbits moved in to the neighbourhood, so I
figured it was something to do with climate.
