I have no idea what my lilies are, they all came free, either from other gardeners or from pots chucked away in skips, but I really enjoy them. Most are White, but I have a beautifully scented light blue one as well. The problem here is lily beetle, these bright red beetles not only attack the lily themselves but lay eggs on the underside of the leaves where their larvae pump ut a stick mess to protect themselves. This is a new phenomena in Britain, some careless person imported them a few years back, and I wonder if you have them in the States? They show up brightly on the plant, but if you try to catch them they drop off, turn upside down on the ground, and vanish. If you carefully work the stalk between your fingers below them they drop straight into your hand, but you need to catch them quickly, and then they are tough little b*****s that need a thumb nail to crush them, or they simply run off.
