Any of the lilies would be suitable but you will find that the oriental trumpets are the sturdiest and produce an abundance of bloom and are fantastic for allotments. (Really scented too). Hope this helps Les.<\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/Nymph.html\">Nymph  (harts1027)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kind regards\n<\/p>\n<p><em class=\"hubmaster_faq_editor\">Loraine Hart<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This question was asked by &#8211; Les Healey Hello I have a large bed available on my allotment and I would like to grow 15\/20 different lilies the soil is clay but is well manured.
