rather than start a new thread, do you mind if I join this one, & we can share the lilly experts between us?
I have the opposite problem, my three lillies are growing (a little), and producing flowers, but in general I am very disappointed with their progress. I have heard of lilly fertilizer sticks, but wading out in my pond to insert them, (see Pond Pictures) would be a major operation. Are they necessary or desirable?
I have put in about 20kg of limestone dust to try to bring the ph up, and this has done so, but is there anything else that I can do? (Can they become pot-bound, for instance? - my baskets are about 10" round.)
