I have one of these, which due to where it was placed to keep it over last winter, didn't flower at all. When is the best time to dig it up and move it? It flowered the year before, in its pot, but didn't this year. I want to save it, as it is a baby of one from 3/4 years ago!

I'm not sure Keith - I've just moved four Asiatic lilies I had in a large pot to a smaller one. I did it about a week ago. I had transferred them all from small pots into the larger pot a few months ago after they had flowered, and now I've moved them again. I'm assuming that the time of year's OK to do it right now and that not much harm'll come to them.

I ended up, two days ago lifting it and moving it to a better place, incorporating lots of grit underneath. Fingers crossed it gets through, as it was the first time I had done this with lilies.
