Known for vigorous growth and bright vibrant colors, the Asiatic Lily has a classic appeal that never fails to delight. The foliage is shorter and clings tightly to the stem so attention is not detracted from the spectacular flowers.
Unlike their Oriental Lily cousins, Asiatic Lilies have little or no fragrance. Our premium grade Lily bunches are great for creating your own Lily bouquets. Mix in field flowers of Lisianthus, and you'll find that mixed Lily bouquets are lovely as well.

Note: Asiatic Lilies arrive in bud form and will begin to bloom within a few days of your online flower delivery.

Lilies have been cultivated in gardens and acclaimed in literature for centuries. Shakespeare, Joubert and Tennyson make reference to this symbol of purity, chastity and pallor. In the Bible it is mentioned more often than the Rose and, in fact, was adopted by the church as the Virgin Mary's flower.
Until 1925 or so, the various original species made up the preponderance of Lilies sold. At that point, hybridizers learned how to produce hybrid Lilies that were healthier, hardier and more ornamentally desirable. While easier to grow, today's hybrids still require a green thumb of substantial experience. The growers we've selected are among the few producers of Lilies who can consistently meet our standards for perfection.
