Listers,
At the base of the leaves on a tiger Lilly there are round nodules
about 3/16 -1/4 inch which detach quite easily.  

If t is the true "Tiger Lily" and you wish to grow other lilies in the same
area, you should know that the "Tiger Lily" is the primary carrier of a virus
that kills most other types of lilies.

It is the typhoid Mary of the Lilly world, most older plants are infected and
they do not show symptoms-but the virus will be passed onto other lilies grow
near by.
