The Amazing LilyFor 75 years the Garden Club of Virginia has held an annual LilyShow. Lilies abound in these shows as individual stems, massed inartistic arrangements, or presented in collection groups. Many of thetypes of lilies exhibited have been displayed for far longer than our75 years of shows.Since the time of the Egyptian pharaohs, the genus lilium, familyliliaceae, has been in cultivation and used in celebrations. Lilies werefound on Roman frescoes in Pompeii and cherished by the earlyChristians who carried the Madonna lily (celebrating the Virgin Maryand Christ child) from the Mediterranean area to Northern Europe.The red martagon became the renaissance “star” of Constantinople.By the seventeenth century, with the discovery of L. canadense,L. philadelphicum and L. superbum in marshes of North America,new exotic plants graced the gardens of London and Amsterdamas well as parties in Versailles. By the nineteenth century, Orientaltrade with China and Japan added L. Speciosum, L. Aurelian Rubrumand later L. Imperial Trumpet lilies to English borders that werefilled with these new plants. Then came the hybridization of MiddleEastern, Oriental and American species lilies in the mid-twentiethcentury, creating the hybrids we celebrate today as Asiatic lilies. Inthe twenty-first century, genetically engineered tetraploid hybridsmade new possibilities: interdivisional crosses between Asiatic (LA),Oriental/trumpet (OT) and longiflorum/trumpet (LO) appeared onshow benches, in garden centers, and throughout contemporarygardens the world over. There is more to come in the futurehybridizing of interdivisional lilies never dreamed possible justdecades ago.We invite you to CELEBRATE this glorious flower and its rich historywith The Garden Club of the Middle Peninsula as we arrange theamazing LILY, with flowers and herbs of our June growing season.The Garden Club of the Middle Peninsula5
