Lilies are one of the truly great garden plants since they are beloved by gardeners everywhere. Their beauty, diversity, extended season of bloom, graceful stature and overall reliable disposition reflect the fruits of hundreds of years of selective breeding. In Chinese, the word 'Lily' means 'forever in love'. The lilium family is so large, varied and complex that it is challenging to describe them in short. Plant just about anywhere - borders, beds, cutting gardens, perennial gardens, pots and containers.

Care Tip
Lilies prefer cool soil. When cutting the flowers for bouquets, remove no more than 1/3 of the stem so sufficient leaves remain to renew the bulb for the coming year.
