Lilies are one of the most popular flowers in the world, and with good reason. There are over 100 different varieties of lily that come in almost every color imaginable, including many hybrid varieties. Each type of lily is beautiful in its own way, and though it was very difficult to choose favorites, below is a list of our top three favorite lilies. When planning your spring garden, consider adding one or all of these amazing, fragrant types of flower – all available for sale on our site. Asiatic LA Hybrid Lilies Asiatic hybrid lilies bloom early and showcase bright and colorful petals. We love them because they are so easy to grow. Not only do they grow in a variety of zones (5 – 9) and can grow in most areas, but they are known for their hardiness and their resistance to pests. They usually bloom between June and July and bear 3 – 12 flowers on each stem. They love sun and will show their pleasure by unfurling in amazing colors. In fact, Asiatic hybrid lilies have the broadest color range among all types of lilies. They are best known for brilliant shades of red, pink, white and yellow. Oriental Lilies Oriental lilies can sometimes be challenging to grow, but the effort is worth the reward if you can get these beauties to show their faces. Oriental lilies are famous for their big, bold blooms that their spicy scent. They come in a variety of shades, including red, pink, white and yellow as well as mixed colors and patterns that are truly spectacular to behold. They tend to bloom between July and August, which can make them great relief flowers when your earlier blooms begin to wilt. Expect about 6 – 12 plump buds per stem. Trumpet Lilies Trumpet lilies are tall and stately with long stems and large, waxy flowers that provide unmatched beauty and fragrance. Not only are trumpet lilies gorgeous, but they’re also relatively easy to grow and make a great choice for new gardeners or those who are growing lilies for the first time. With their tall stems, trumpet lilies are often the first thing a visitor to your garden will see. They look great when planted in front of climbing roses, against evergreens or next to a patio, but they may overshadow shorter, smaller flowers if planted in a big cluster.
