My ref to Amarylas was messed up. Smiling Not on the Hyacinth though - that forcing pretty much uses it up.

An Oriental lily blooming in a pot in Summer is not forcing. Perhaps we disagree I guess. An Oriental lily blooming til done in my yard is forcing?

An Oriental lily blooming in the ground or a pot in August is entirely normal. Sure - it would appreciate being in the ground. And if it finishes in the pot, it can be planted in the ground and will do perfectly the next season. I sell hundreds of them and raise several hundred this way each year. That was my point to the OP.

Perhaps we are talking about two completely different things.
