soo much rain,Its almost depressing and its going to continue the rest of the week.Ive noticed the lowest leaves on some of my oriental lilies are also yellowing but I can't remember weather or not this is normal,I am a little concerned. soil is completely saturated.

I know what you mean! England must look like this. The green stuff is all very lush but the flowers are not blooming. I think many more of my irises will rot this year. So far the lilies look OK but I notice that they are creating fewer buds than usual: established ones too. Like Asiatics with big thick stems and 1-4 buds whereas last year the same lilies had more like 9.
