Lilies

Lillies are one of the most popular perennials in the garden. Probably because they have long lasting blooms and come in a variety of colors. The orange ones are Tiger Lillies and the yellow ones are Stella Dora.

An interesting note about lillies. My friend Tom said that he and his wife like to eat the lily flowers. I was surprised when he told me this so I asked him how they are prepared. He said "just like squash blossoms." I haven't had the guts to try to eat lillies yet, but maybe someday.
