Tiger lily bulbils

Few squirrels here, but the admonition is well taken.
I will put some into the ground, and some in pots. Time will tell how this
works out.
These were my late wife's and until this spring were kept at a place that
had much colder winters, much more like the PNW, than where I live.

Well, "toss them anywhere" might work, if the squirrels didn't eat
the tiger lily bulbils before they got into the ground. If Randall
wants more plants, it would be well to plant them about 2 inches (5
cm) deep. I took some from my one mature plant this summer and
planted them in a large pot to get another year's growth on them, and
will then plant them out. Lilium lancifolium is such a common garden
plant that some people won't grow it, but in a large garden it can be
useful. It flowers later than some other lilies and, as Rimmer
suggested, it will grow in almost any conditions.
