Those are some nice lilies, Sassy. Congratulations.

Absolutely beautiful!

Maybe you can help me since it seems that you know what you are doing and I'm new to gardening. I have a Casa Blanca lily plant that is turning yellow. I planted the bulbs at the end of April and it's been growing just great since then, until recently.

Any help would be appreciated.

It's normal for lily plants to turn yellow after they bloom. When the bloom is spent, and if no pods are growing, the lily plant will die back. It's completely normal. Do not cut it off until it turns brown. It needs food it gets from the sun until the leaves are no longer functioning. Now is the time to dig down a couple of inches all around where the lily came up and sprinkle a generous helping of bone and blood meal. This will help your lily when it comes up in the spring, to make flowers.

Very nice photos of very pretty lilies, Sassy! :0) Phyl

Lainey,
Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, my lilies haven't even bloomed yet. The one that was dying in the picture did finally die completely. Now it seems like the other 5 plants are suffering from the same condition. They are all turning yellow, and they have yet to bloom. They all have blooms just waiting to open, but the plant stems are turning yellow and the yellow seems to work its way up to the leaves. I hope I can find an answer before the rest of them die.

Dear kat7399,
I'm just wondering if you are in the Catskills? And whether your Wandering Jews are mingling?
