  1. Those are quite nice, orange being my favorite color. A lily could not last a day here. Here in Arizona we have the Palo Verde trees for a time with their yellow flowers and green bark that pop against the blue skies.

  2. Those exact lillies last very many days around here… easily a week+, maybe 3 weeks… I don’t really pay attention cause they’re so common.

    After a long rainy season, I still haven’t gotten in the habit of watering, so my oriental lillies died without blooming.

    1. I have to disagree with River, at least where the orange ones are concerned. I’ve always found that if I cut a stem with many buds on it, they open nicely in a vase of water as if they were still planted. Of course, now that we have cats, I don’t bring any flowers in the house anymore, especially lilies. Maybe River and I have different varieties (or maybe hers just really resent being cut – haha).
