This is my first time scaling Lily bulbs. I just learned about propagating scales 5 months ago.
Admittedly I have become Obsessed lol.
First Pic is Asiatic, LA, and Tiger lily scales that are almost done with cold treatment even got froze some cause fridge was sit to high. Growing roots good some sprouting.
Second Pic is Forever Susan bulbs I grew from bulbils last season they have already grown a summer went dormant and had same cold treatment as others. Massive root systems and some sprouting.
Third Pic is Oriental scales (yes 2 gallon bucket is full to the rim). Some are big rooted bulblets some are just forming no cold treatment yet though.
My question is why can't I just plant in a row in my garden and let them finish and start cold treatment in ground? They could just start growing anytime they want this spring without being disturbed again. I'm in zone 7b rest of our winter will not be bad maybe a few nights around 30 days in 40's@50's. Of course there will be nights that are colder and warmer days but not many.
