I've got this one on order this year... has it ever set hips for you Maragret?

At present there is nothing on mine (which is quite large), and I note that no descendants are listed.

Simon - You might be interested in the 2006 reference.

Yes, I read that... It's interesting that Lilia says it doesn't flower till late and then keeps going through winter. Bracteata does the same for me making it difficult to work with. You need to put it on whatever is in flower at the time, which isn't much. I've resorted to freezing its pollen for use in the following spring which has thus far been quite unproductive. My clinophylla babies are also only just coming into flower halfway through autumn showing similarities with bracteata, to which it is closely related.

Mine flowered August (winter) to December last year (the wet spring might have extended the flowering season).
