Hi Jane,

It is extremely hot here in Southern California.

I found a white speciosa Japanese Lily bloomed yesterday. This is the first time to re bloom.

I always have one or two of my martagons rebloom in the fall. If to late the frost hits them.

The historically hot and very dry weather of the past few months in the US Northwest has made a number of plants behave differently than usual. One surprise coming with cooling temperatures is that a Lilium martagon in the garden, which had flowered in late spring as usual and withered, has sent up a second scape and opened some flowers. I've never had a lily species do this before. Has anyone else seen such behavior?

This particular martagon lily was grown from seed obtained from a Czech collector, who wrote that it came from an "orange-flowered" population in Siberia. My plant's flowers are not what I could call "orange," but they are different from the usual pink or white shades, being a sort of muddy buff. Not a gem, but certainly an eccentric.
