Hockeyrabbit said:Hi-

Does anyone else have an issue with some of their lilies not opening correctly when mornings are cooler, like in the 50s? It seems that it either rains, is cold, or super hot in my part of NY, so there is never consistency in the climate.

I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? This is really nothing I can control, right?

Regards, JC

No you cannot control it but what you can do is add cool/cold morning openers to your garden. Some hybridizers list this in their descriptions (website, and/or AHS data base). Some may be CMO even if not listed as such because maybe the hybridizers area doesn't get cold enough to know. You can also check the ATP data base to see if anyone has added this to any cultivars
