I am a newbie that just bought herself 2 bags of 20 tiger lily bulbs. They are starting to sprout but have difficulties. What kind of soil and fertilizer would liger lilies love?
Thank you very much, Alexandra C
Alexandrea, tiger Lillies are not fussy about fertilizers or soil conditions, so long as they are not placed in ground that is waterlogged a great deal of the time. If you wish to fertilize I recomend Bonemeal added to the bottom of the hole at time of planting,

Maybe I missed something. You have asked this question at least twice and got answers. I believe that you sent me email which I answered. The troubling part is that on December 9th. you wrote: " received this summer some beautiful Tiger Lilies. They are my first lilies and I don't know how to care for them very well." You also wrote: "My plants (lilies - intense orange with tiny brown specks) are dying slowly and I don't know why. The leaves start to show yellow "
Now you say that you just bought some "bulbs" and don't know how to care for them and that they are just sprouting. Which is it?
Well, after that I felt better with all the advice and went out and bought a different colour. I am sorry if you feel I have asked the same questions. I wanted some more opinions on this. It will be my first garden (when we finally manage to settle down) and I wanted it to be perfect. Thank you for your help and Merry Christmas!

Over in uk.rec.gardening, last week Birdieb was asking daft questions about the 6ft wind-break hedge she needs to plant in her garden. This week, birdieb is asking urg (again and again) about irises and says she lives in an apartment without a garden. Other gardening groups are being asked the same questions as rec/g and urg.

Yes, I picked-up on that. He/she must be counting on people having short memories or didn't realize that Google archives newsgroup messages.
Maybe birdiebrain is suffering from early stages of oldtimers disease?
