http://members.cox.net/hrclark1/Index.html So, Hal, your lily thinks it a lotus. ;o) If someone has a source for a good slow release lily fertilizer,please post it. Hal Well I don't know if they're slow release, but try www.gardenlink.com and click on "Spikes" they make a lily spike, big, suppose to last all year by their claim. I know the gal fertilizing the lilies at the D.pond this year is using them, and I guess she's happy with the blooms. (I'm not happy that the volunteers don't dead head and squish aphids enough, but the filter is the only concern I can deal with this year.) What happens to your pads if you were to go thru and get rid of all those "ugly" spread out old pads? When my lilies have started to do this, going thru and plucking off those old pads takes care of it. But than, I get in at least once a week and deadhead and strip off anything ugly. Ugly (yellowing, brown spots, rips) stressed pads attracts aphids. I'm using the Jobe's Tomato spikes and feed about every 3 weeks, 2 each. ~ jan ~Power to the Porg, Flow On!~ |
