that lily , wow I have never seen one like it before, completely different to those that we grow over here. Do you get problems with lily beetles? or does Mr lazy lizard feed on them?

'Lily borer' moth (Brithys crini pancratii) get into the stems and leaves they party throughout the garden. Bulbs underground dormant during winter I do not think much else. Slugs/snails sometimes enjoy the leaves but not as destructive.
your borer could be our beetle, bright red in colour , little bastards!
Ours are black and white/yellow worms wriggling around from plant to plant, destructive hungry little buggers.
nasty, they ruin such lovely and fragrant plants.
Survival of the fit....
