Lilies

Beavers, muskrats, ducks, porcupines, and snails eat water lilies. Other animals, such as deers and even humans eat the inside of water lilies-the seeds inside.

Sea lilies use the tube feet on their arms to capture floating plankton in the water.

Day Lilies (Hemerocallis species) - Slightly sweet with a mild vegetable flavor, like sweet lettuce or melon. Their flavor is a combination of asparagus and zucchini. Chewable consistency. Some people think that different colored blossoms have different flavors. To use the surprisingly sweet petals in desserts, cut them away from the bitter white base of the flower. Also great to stuff like squash blossoms. Flowers look beautiful on composed salad platters or crowning a frosted cake. Sprinkle the large petals in a spring salad. In the spring, gather shoots two or three inches tall and use as a substitute for asparagus. NOTE: Many Lilies contain alkaloids and are NOT edible. Day Lilies may act as a diuretic or laxative; eat in moderation.

The life cycle of a daffodil dictates that it flowers once each season.

When you cut the flower stem, the remaining greenery collects resources -- sunlight, water and nutrients -- to re-invigorate the bulb for the next season, when it will bloom again.

Calla rhizomes need to be split after they've finished blooming and leaves turn yellow or die off. The rhizome needs a chance to dry out before being split. For the colored variety, be very careful not to let it sit in moisture or they may rot! Take them out of the soil and set them in a dark, dry place for a few days. Then, pry the rhizomes apart.

For the larger, white calla (prefers moist soil), it won't rot. I would still recommend letting it dry out a bit before separating the bulbs.

Yes, the Lilium Philadelphicum is being threated and protected under the provincal emblems and honours act, meaning it can not be picked, uprooted or destroyed in any way, so please don't pick them so we can allow our childrens children to admire these lilies to come, once a flower becomes extinct there is no was of man to re-create it. We also have not yet proven what flowers have positive medical effects, this will need to be researched. Keeping all flowers from extinction will allow us to see in the future what positive effects these flowers can do.

1. Answer geting food for there cubs,making sure there cubs are safe.
2. NOTHING ELSE

It depends on the weather, but about five days for the smaller varieties.

If you cut the main flower back to the buds on the stem you will get a second flush of flowers.

The lily needs a constant temperature between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit to grow efficiently. This varies slightly depending on the type of lily.

According to the University of California, Calla Lilies are indeed toxic. Their juice or sap can irritate the skin, mouth, tongue, and throat, resulting in throat swelling, breathing difficulties, burning pain, and stomach upset. They can also cause rashes or a skin irritation. You must wash the area of skin with soap and water ASAP. The University of Californian website warns that if you have indeed come into contact with calla lily sap and have one of these systems to call poison control or go to a doctor.

Yes, the sap of the peace lily is poisonous. They contain oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation of the skin, mouth, tongue, and throat, and results in swelling of the throat, breathing difficulties, burning pain, and stomach discomfort if ingested. While the effects in humans are relatively mild, it can be fatal for pets in small amounts.

A caterpillar called a leaf roller is a common problem to cannas. Regular applications of an insecticide soap purchased from a garden store can help control, but to truly eradicate the leaf roller, three or four weekly applications of BT, bacillus thuringiensis, will stop this pests life cycle. The leaf roller ingests the product while eating the folded leaf and can no longer eat afterwards, dying from starvation. BT only affects this type of caterpillar while it is harmless to other beneficial insects. Because it has to eat the BT to be effective, you may find evidence of the pest's leavings inside when releasing the caterpillar's webbing from a leaf, but the leaf roller itself will be dead or gone. Application of these two suggestions should be done in late evenings. Both the soap and the BT are much friendlier to the environment than true poisons by selectively controlling this pest. Use one and wait to see results before applying the other.

Depends what lily you are talking about some are winter flowering and some summer.

Example:

Zantedeschia ethiopica flowers in winter and Zantedeschia pentlandii flowers in summer

Blooming Idiots. The Bloom Room. Beauty and common scents. Grandma's Yard.

The short answer is no.

A more complex answer is that Sprekelia is sometimes called the orchid amaryllis, but it belongs with the Amaryllidaceae family, as does the Belladonna Lily that is most often called 'amaryllis'. Neither belong to the family 'orchideaceae'.

The theme is pretty much what the book is about. This book is about a man named Homer Smith, a southern man, who comes across some German nuns who need his help. The head mother of the nuns, Mother Maria Marthe, believes that Homer is the answer to her prayers and asks him to build a church for them. It's a book of faith.

You can, but it is a little trickier than some transplants. The corms are quite deep, 10 to 12" inches deep. It is best to wait until bloom season is done, then look for a place with heavy corm growth. You will dig down, and then carefully split some corms off of this clump. The foliage is likely to die off when it is transplanted, but as long as you were gentle with them, they will grow back.

coz the have legs so they can swim hehehe

The center of a calla lily is called the spadix. These flowers are not actually related to the true lily.
