Lilies

Lilies bring dramatic color and timeless elegance to the garden, with large, luminous blooms that rise on sturdy stems during summer. Their gracefully shaped petals, often brushed with freckles, stripes, or soft gradients, add depth and visual richness to borders and floral arrangements, offering lasting beauty during the warmest months of the year.

Lilies

How to Choose

Lily type: Asiatic lilies bloom first with no scent, orientals bloom later with strong fragrance, and trumpets sit between.

Height and support: Stems range from knee-high pots to towering trees; taller varieties may need staking.

Fragrance: Scent ranges from none to powerful, which matters most near seating and doorways.

Drainage: Lilies want sun on their heads, shade at their feet and soil that never stays waterlogged.
