Well Nanny, your pictures are going to force me to try some "real" lillies, instead of just daylilies!! :lol:

That is one awesome clump!

2 summers ago I finally tried growing Triumphator in the hosta garden and this year there are several stems there too. It has held up really well, I've never staked it, and everyone comments on it when they come in the drive and it is in bloom :)

Thanks for sharing, Claudia!

Triumphator IS awesome!!!I never stake it here either and that is wind alley along there. Our house sits at a very odd angle...so this end of it is where north and west meet...So lots of wind!!! Like you Chris, this is one that every one always comments about!

Hello, I am new to this forum. I have question about this particular lily. How tall is this lily when it is mature? This is my first year growing them and they are just 2-2.5 ft. high. I want to move them at the front of the border but would like to ask people from this forum who has experience growing them. Thank you.

Very pretty. I grew my very first true lily this summer, Lilium 'Symphony', a gift plant. It came to me in bud, and bloomed, even after its journey! Being used to the daylily, with the flowers that are beautiful for 'a day', I was surprised to see the lily hold up nicely for about a week!

Welcome to Hallson's, jazzy88! If I'm not mistaken, this particular lily can grow to be 4-5 feet tall, so it's a biggie! :D

The tallest stem in mine is around 7ft. but I don't think that is the norm! :lol: 4-6 feet is what they usually say.

John, that one is really pretty..may have to look for it!
