Lily Eucharis sp. Lily Mystery solved by Ursula G. living in Southern Germany |
||
|

|

This is a group or family of lilies that I first encountered and fell in love with at our former home in Taxco, Mexico. Since then I have seen varieties growing wild beside the road at our former home in the Caribbean Island of Montserrat and now I've found those familiar lilies and a new member of the family here at Lake Atitlan in the highlands of Guatemala. |

Houdyshel Lily Called the Sangre de Cristo in Taxco, Mexico, on weekends these lilies are brought to market in bunches of twelve from family gardens in the surrounding villages. When I could find a bunch that hadn't been abused on the bus ride into town I'd buy whatever they had at whatever price they quoted. It was always a bargain for me and I think many times a boon for them. Planting and Care: The plant seems like it would be happiest in a swampy area although it does grow under very difficult situations, often by the sunny hot and dry roadside in Montserrat.

 Sword
Lily, Abyssinian Sword Lily Gladiolus callianthus and
AcidendrythaBenefits: From: Maybe from Ethiopia Photographed: At the Hotel Atitlan on Lake Atitlan in Guatemala in 2010. Planting and Care: This is a lily that is easy to grow especially in warm climates. In cold environments it will need to be removed from the garden and stored in paper until late spring when it can go back in the garden. It grows well in ordinary soil in full sun or with some shade in the afternoon. Though it is a lily, its foliage appears to be most like that of an iris. Its sweet smelling sleepy blossoms and attractive foliage make it well worth the effort to dig it up and replant in the spring. It multiplies easily making it an even more wonderful plant. Text and Photograph ©GreenGardeningCookingCuring.com 2010/2018 My 'White Lily Mystery #7' was solved by a visitor to my website who lives in S. Devon in the UK. I am very grateful for her help. It sounds like she has a lovely garden and I sure hope she can identify more of my mysteries. |
