How did the tiger lily get its name?
Tiger Lilies are in fact usually hybrids of a cross between the species tigrinum or lancifolium and an asiatic hybrid. A true tiger lily is now considered to be of the species tigrinum. They reproduce prolifically, especially along the stem...ever wondered what those little brown nibs forming along the stem of one of your lilies was? They are called stem bulbils, and if you plant them, in time each one will produce another lily exactly like the one it came from! Plants grown from these bulbils cannot be expected to produce blooms in their first year, but if you happen to get some of the earliest ones and plant them, they just may get a surprise the following year. Some of the bulbils will fall off the parent stem already with their roots started and the first leaf popping up! You can guarantee that any lily which produces stem bulbils has tigrinum/lancifolium in its genes. A good example for us is the orange/red Asiatic, 'Orange Beauty. It, like the 'Tigers' we have in our front yard, produces a huge number of bulbils every year.

Probably not, but it's fun making up endings, or more specifically last lines; like, NORRIS: 'No, Sergeant, I think you should cut the yellow wire.'
There were many different varieties of these minted. Most are worth a dollar or less depending on amount of wear and collector demand. You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
Cut or plant? If cut, disolve the flower food in tepid water and they should bloom in one day. If a plant, then water with warm water and let drain thoroughly. Place in the kitchen for warmth..the plant should bloom much faster.

I think it may be due to over feeding with plant N,P,K, minerals. The plant is happy and not bothering to flower. Flowering is a way of making seed in stressful conditions. Stop feeding it and water sparingly and I think it will be forced into bloom.
The bulbous perennial known as the trout lily (AKA dog's tooth violet et al), "Erythronium" is found in a wide range of habitats from deciduous woodlands to open mountain meadows in North America, Europe, and Asia, a living tribute to its innate hardiness. While the Japanese call it "katakuri" and process the bulbs to make an edible starch, the bulb itself is edible as a root vegetable, cooked or dried, and the leaves can be cooked as a leaf vegetable. They are tasty! Also widely utilized ornamentally- and available in 20-30 species/colors- these delicately-stemmed beauties flower in the springtime. Some species are best scattered by seed during the autumn, while others are best propagated by the splitting of existing bulbs. Some species even propagate vegetatively. Over time, they will spread out to make an excellent ground cover.

Do white lilies have a meaning?
History, mythology, and art are filled with stories and images that speak of the beauty and majesty of the elegant white flowers. One of the most famous Biblical references is in the Sermon on the Mount, when Christ said, "Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they toil not, neither do they spin; and yet Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." Through the ages, allegorical tales have linked lilies to the sacrament of motherhood. Ancient fables tell us the lily sprang from the milk of Hera, the mythological Queen of Heaven. Roman mythology credits lilies to Juno, the queen of the gods. The story goes that while Juno was nursing her son Hercules, excess milk fell from the sky. Although part of it remained above the earth (thus creating the Milky Way), the remainder fell to the earth, creating lilies. Often called the "white-robed apostles of hope," lilies are said to have been found growing in the Garden of Gethsemane after Christ's agony. Tradition has it that the beautiful white blooms sprung up where drops of Christ's sweat fell to the ground in his final hours of sorrow and deep distress. At Easter time, Churches bank their altars and surround their crosses with masses of Easter Lilies, to commemorate the resurrection of Jesus Christ and hope of life everlasting. The pure white lily has long been associated with the Virgin Mary, too. In early paintings, the Angel Gabriel is pictured extending a branch of pure white lilies to the Virgin Mary, announcing that she is to be the mother of the Christ Child. In other paintings, saints are pictured bringing vases full of white lilies to Mary and the infant Jesus. In yet another expression of womanhood, tradition has it that when Eve left the Garden of Eden she shed real tears of repentance, and from those remorseful tears sprung up lilies. The spiritual principle held here is that true repentance is the beginning of beauty. A mark of purity and grace throughout the ages, the regal white lily is a fitting symbol of the greater meaning of Easter. Gracing millions of homes and churches, the flowers embody joy, hope and life. Whether given as a gift or enjoyed in your own home, the Easter Lily serves as a beautiful reminder that Easter is a time for rejoicing and celebrating.

Do water lilies sometimes make popping sounds?
According to Dr. Eric Dibble, the popping sound you hear isn't actually coming from the water lilies. The sound is produced by fish, often sunfish, feeding off the lilies. The suction action of their mouths cause popping noise.
