Lily Fest 2008

Saturday September 6, 2008

Although the bitter cold of winter is putting some lilies into dormancy and killing others, plans are already in place for this year's event. The Lily Fest will again be in September as that is the premier time to see all of the tropicals and Victorias in all of their splendor. If you can not make it for Lily Fest there are still many opportunities to be amazed. Hardy lilies will begin to bloom around the beginning of April. Tropicals will begin blooming about mid June. The peak of the season for all of the plants is September. This is the glory time for the lilies. Lily Fest is held in September so that the first fall cool fronts can make for a more pleasurable day outside for all who visit. If you look at the New & Unnamed lilies page you will get a clue as to some of the exciting plants you can be the first to see. For those that know, we will see you there. For those that have not made the journey to San Angelo, Well you don't want to miss it, so come and enjoy a fabulous showing of waterlilies and enjoy some fine Texas hospitality in the wonderful Texas Hill Country.

The New Dwarf Variety of Victoria will be grown for the 2008 season. Be one of the first in the world to see this exciting new find by Patrick Nutt alongside Don and Shirley Bryne.
