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...
