I just bought a new asiatic lily called “Black Charm. ” I
normally don’t buy lily bulbs in the spring, but couldn’t resist! I love dark colored flowers. I have Landini
already but have not much liked it. The color is good but the flower form is not attractive.

I bought Black Magic colocasia (elephant ear) at the same
time (I was planning on that anyway). I’d like them near each other, perhaps
with a white lily to set them off, or a white with purple dark markings. I
bought “Eyeliner” a few years ago but it never bloomed, now I hesitate to try
that one again.

I went through all the bags to find ones that were the least
sprouted. I know I should get them into
the ground soon, though hardly anything is up, so it’s not easy to decide where,
and to allow the space for the colocasia.

Anyone grow this?
