I planted 6 Lilium bulbs this morning and I just realized that I planted them upside down. Does it make sense to pull them up and replant or just leave them alone and they will find their way? I feel so dumb.

Just go turn them Upright,, it won't hurt them at all to that, Don't feel dumb I've done it plenty of times. I went back out and dug them up and sat them upright, Not a problem! make sure the pointed tip is UP, :wink:

Thanks. I'll wait until the sun goes down a little more and dig 'em up. And here I thought some stems coming up were roots. DUH
