Re: pH of lilies


Al,
These were mostly Casablancas. We did have an unusually wet spring last
year, and though these are under an overhang that is usually dry, it's
probable that this place was nearly as wet as everything else. I didn't
fertilize until I had to to get the chelates into them. Again, I'll keep
them under observation, it's certainly been dry this year, and perhaps
they'll do better. I'd rather not go fooling around with the pH unless
I'm sure that's the problem.

			Thank you,
			Mary
