For this year, the selections are being made, the crosses are making seed and the flowers are de-budded.
Due to the very hot and 'long' Summer, it was a challenging season, but still very successful year and that will hopefully carry on into the new seedling for the Future.
A part of our seedling field looked like the colors in an Asiatic seedling field, a lot of pastel.
A picture of that section is underneath this message
A part of the selections, which were made, will be shown on our 'Selections Cut' page.
While looking at them you will conclude, that there are several new colors and color combinations available now in Oriental hybrids.
For the retail we were able to select many new varieties, including L. Speciosum hybrids.
In contrast to L. Speciosum var. 'Uchida' or 'Album', they will flower 4 weeks earlier and in some cases 6 weeks.
All the lilies we selected this year will be scaled or replanted.

In 2022) we celebrated our 45-year Anniversary in lily breeding.
Hopefully we can add many more years to it.
Our web site has been updated and adjusted as it was getting too many pages
This time it only shows the selections we made during the last couple of years
That doesn't mean you cannot see the ones we selected in earlier years
Most are still growing strong and available
These can be seen, while visiting our company
A new page, named colored lilies, is added to the website
Here you can see that there are many colors and its variations in Oriental seedlings.
