Toronto Ontario - Canada - Allan Gardens Conservatory - Toronto Tropical Garden - Red Lily
Lilies are members of the genus Lilium, a group that belongs to the family Liliaceae. Originating in sub-tropical and temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere and prized as flowering ornamentals, lilies rank among the earliest cultivated plants.
Over the centuries, lilies have become engrained in everyday culture including art, literary texts, medicinal uses, food sources and for their astonishing decorative beauty. The loveliness of lilies has made them increasingly hybridized.
