for bulbis from other colors of lilies (bulbis are the small, black seed
bulbs that form an the stalk under each leaf -- these drop off when ripe,
fall to the ground and a baby lilies emerges next spring). one of my tigers
is over 5 feet tall -- the rest over four feet. please e-mail if you'd like
to trade @: lschaedler@hotmail.com --
thanks!

I hate to rain on your parade-but for those that grow other lilies the
introduction of "Tiger Lilies" into their gardens is not a good idea. The
old fashioned "tiger Lilies" are the typhoid Mary of the lily genus. Most
have a virus that is very destructive to other lilies.
