Default A lily question

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


Some lilies make bulbils in the leaf axils which makes life easy! others
you can do from seed but obviously not if yours is a hybrid, but all
lilies produce offsets so you should be able to lift the clump and look
for the little offsets to pot up. Or you could get technical and look up
how to grow them from the scales.
