It's fascinating, thank you. I'd still like to know how to propagate the
lily.

Some info here....

but it's a long job from seed, a year or so quicker if it grows bulbils in
the leaf axis that can be potted on.

Hmm. Not sure that we have enough time to start from seed :-) I'll look for
bulbils.


I'd also like to know, in passing, what type of lily it is :-)


I think it's .... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilium_martagon

Certainly looks like that! Thanks again Bob.
