Here's but a few of the nicer lilies still remaining among my original Griesbach rescues.

This one blooms every year and has been used in crosses several times. It's never produced extra petals and anthers, so likely just an artifact of the two previous year's weather. Beautiful interior markings!

One of several White Amber types. These hearken back to tetra White Henryi that Bob developed and used as founding breeding stock.

When selecting some of the bulbs for breeding I've focus not just on interior coloring, but also the overall shape of the flowers (I do like the bowl-shaped flowers and petal tips with an extra curl) and enhanced exterior color.
