Oriental Lilies turning brown

17 years ago

the edges of my Oriental Lilies are turning brown and some are turning before they bloom some of the bottom leaves are also turning brown. I live in Oklahoma City and the temps are in the 100's. I have plenty mulch and water every other day. What am I doing wrong?

I'm having the same issue with some of the upper leaves on mine. I think it's because they're getting too much afternoon sun. I've read they like morning sun with a break in the afternoon. Could this be your problem? I plan on moving mine for next year.
