Serrano Lilies
With its buttercream-yellow petals and cocoa-brown stamens, the Serrano Lily is truly a treat for the eyes, and its distinctive and irresistible scent only sweetens the deal. The tight pale green buds of this Oriental/Trumpet Lily hybrid unfurl slowly to reveal large, lemony flowers that face upwards and smell divine, a truly special gift.
Each Serrano Lily stem holds three to five buds, which will blossom in approximately five to seven days, filling your home with their sweet fragrance.
Note: Serrano 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.
