They are right next to some other colored lilies and I never know until they bloom, which plants are which. They both look almost identical.
Every year I dig up 1 or 2 bulbs/rhizomes... break them apart and plant them here or there in my other flower beds. Only problem with that is you don't get a flowering plant for about 3 yrs.

It not that they try to eat the seeds or bulbs, it more like getting them to keep the dirt/potting soil in the flowerbed instead of all over the lawn. That, or getting them both to stay near me and not running to the other side of the house where I can't see them, or out onto the street, etc. Maybe duct taped to the tree is the solution. J/k

Thats OK, you could be stuck on a (what was to be) a relatively easy chip and re-tile project for the bathroom floor gone bad...
While Mel and Kelley enjoy the beautiful weather outside here this week...
and I start tearing out the floor tile, and discover a widening cancer of floor water damage under the tile. It was bad enough to make me tear out the wall and ceramic tile in the shower stall as well...
Only to find out how REALLY bad ( and big a project) this is to become...
That hole goes all the way through the subflooring, I can't believe the tile was enough to keep us from falling through.
When we bought the house, there were signs that there was a leak here, but part of the inspeciton and pre-purchase agreement was that they would have this fixed... it turns out that their repair was to just use some silicon caulk in the visible cracks. The water damage in the subflooring goes all the way through, I have now totally broken up the shower tile and the 3" layer of tiling mud and wire lath into 3" chunks (you'd think it would come out in larger pieces...), removed the walls, removed the vanity cabinet and sinks and commode, cut out the flooring that was the bathroom, replaced some support joists, replumbed for the new shower and commode and vanities, replaced the subfloor and underlayment, and started today on rebuilding the shower stall and walls (and ceiling...) so that I might be ble to start the cosmetics of the original re-tiling project for the FLOOR.
Been working on it every day this week, more later as more progress is made.

UHG Tom,
way to do it right man but soooo not what you wanted to find I am sure!
Gotta love the DIY of home imporvment, but I so dislike those structural suprises!
I just wanted to take down the wall paper NOT re-drywall  |
