Lilies on my balcony...





I just love Lilies. These Asiatic lilies were grown from bulbs which I planted in October. They were blooming in Feb-March.

  2. Lovely! These are not generally available in Mumbai but I managed to get a couple of bulbs from a plant exhibtion in Feb. I hope it wont roast in our summer heat!

  3. They look gorgeous. I guess they might not survive the south Indian heat :(

  5. My favorite is the yellow lily. Sadly, it's probably too windy here in Kansas, USA, for those lilies. They are pretty though.

  8. Hi, These are lovely. Any idea where you could get the bulbs in/around Chennai. Also, do you have tuberoses?

  9. Lovely lillies! Any tip on where I could get some of these here in Delhi? I've been hunting around in nurseries, with no luck. Only yesterday, I got some Amaryllis lily bulbs.

    1. I got these from Barafkhana. Thats near Kashmere Gate. There are many shops selling seeds and bulbs there.

    3. Hi Sujata,
      What is the cost of each bulb. Is it worth to buy and plant now?

    4. Hi Sujata,

      Can you also bring some light on how to store this bulb after blooming for next year.
      Is they die back every year or survive?

      Thanks,
