Try and find out the original growers of your lilys. Every grower/importer have their own names for them. They might look identical to the usual gardeners eye, but an extra stripe or ragged petal gives them the right to launch a new addition. Abot the only thing you can be certain of, is 'fireball will be red and yellow, unless you got them cut price, then they will just be marketing names that make them saleable to the novice. I have had a look through my usual suppliers catalogue and cannot even find a similar name for any of them.

Well found there, I will take all I said back. You are in for a real treat with fireball. I shall add them to my list next year.

I have just put all mine in pots, under cover ready to use when the weather is better. The bulbs must have just arrived in the shops as I had to wait 4 or 5 weeks for my order. Mind you I might have been a bit hasty in my admiration of fireball, When I saw the price, I could get ten to a dozen for what they want per bulb.
