I know it's customary to always look for positives Lovey dubby , but... let's face it, some lilies are just not great performers in our own gardens, although they may be brilliantly elsewhere.

The sickest lily I ever grown (Botrytis) and the individual flowers doesn't last long:

As it performed so horrible here, I absolutely refused to even photograph it myself. However I'm going to try moving it to the kitchen garden where it gets more morning sun and more wind to see if it improves.

A NOID dvarf Asiatic pink/yellow that I got from a mix. Colours fade if it's hot and it blooms a very short time. Maybe I'll try this one for dinner Drooling

So... don't by shy, come here and confess your dislikes.
Personally I reserve the right to add to this list...
