    You can dig up suckers from your friends' lilac bushes for free. Mix peat moss with the soil when you replant them. I even went to a neighbor I did not know and offered to trade plants with her. She was happy to do so.

    I have never grown lillies, but I have grown gladiolas and irises which are similar. My only problem with them is the blooms are too short lived. They are so pretty.
    Many day lilies are available which bloom all summer in many colors. You can also order day lilies which bloom at various times so that there are always some in bloom. Trade with neighbors and watch them quickly spread in your garden.
