sheepdog 10 Report post Posted November 29, 2009 Out in our back yard we had one of those old tires that had the sidewalls turned up and made into a flower pot, it's probably just under 2 foot tall and about that wide. It's had lillies planted in it for years. I forget the variety name, these are the ones with orange flowers, but they are a single stem with the leaves coming off the stem, not the variety that has the grass like folliage around them. I think some are called tiger lillies and some are called day lilies, I can never remember which is which. Over the years the dirt has erroded out of the tire, and I needed to refill it. I knew if I put the dirt in on top of the bulbs they would be burried too deep and would not come up, so I went ahead and dug them out, they needed dividing anyway. Now I am not sure how to store the bulbs for the winter. I figured it would be ok to put some of them back in the tire after I fill it, but how to keep the rest? Dry them and plant next spring, or what? Anybody have any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
