A Watched Pot

I think I have googled "how long until lilies sprout" more times than you can count on one hand. Way too many times. I hate waiting and with those bulbs, it is even harder. You can't dig around to see "is it working? Anyone alive in there?".

For a couple of weeks now, every single day I obsessively check the pots for signs of life.

Nothing from the lilies. The first sprouts of Begonias have showed themselves - I may or may not have jumped like a silly little girl. Seriously though, when do I give up on the lilies?

Yesterday I planted the "Dark Angel Pretty Woman" Dahlias (Who comes up with those names?). So one more pot to watch...

The lilies are in the big pot. The dahlia in the small one.
Baby begonias!
