Lilies are a great addition to any summer garden, with their star-shaped and colorful flowers. However, if you live in an area with harsh winters, they require extra care during the fall season. In our guide to growing lilies, you can learn more about these perennials that add elegance and fragrance to your garden. With different types of lilies blooming from early summer to autumn, you can enjoy their magnificent blooms all season long by planting a mix of early, mid-season, and late varieties. Lilies come in various colors such as pink, gold, red, orange, and white, and have six petals or strikingly marked petals. Asiatic, Oriental, and Trumpet lilies are popular species, each with its unique characteristics. Asiatic lilies are short but offer a broad range of colors, while Oriental lilies produce a strong fragrance and bloom later than their Asiatic counterparts. Trumpet lilies resemble Oriental lilies but have smaller, trumpet-like flowers. Other lilies, such as tiger and Turkish lilies, are also available, along with hybrids like Orienpet and LA lilies. Whether in formal or naturalistic settings, lilies make fantastic cut flowers and can thrive in containers.
