Tiger Lily question....

[Viva_La_Revolution]

Why are half of my just planted bulbs coming up red instead of green? They all got planted at the same depth, yet one is 6 inches tall, skinny and red, some are emerging normally but are red, while several others are the normal green. :shrug:

3. Sometimes light exposure can make a difference....

My neighbor and I each have a Devil's Backbone. I keep mine in the house with very filtered light, she keeps hers on the patio in sun. Mine stays green while hers gets a strong red color to the leaves. Is it more of a streaking on the leave or is the entire leaf red?

4. They are intermixed in the front bed... same amount of light each..

I'll try and post a pic in the next few days.. the tallest red one is 8 inches now!
