Lilies
There are about 100 different species of lilies. They are an important and popular plant in gardening and a staple of Easter celebrations. The bulbs of the plant are even edible and are grown on a large scale in China as a health food. They are said to be able to lower the internal body temperature and become popular over the hot summer months in China. In North America, Lilies will grow in southern Canada and most of the United States. They are predominately a deciduous plant which means it sheds its foliage at the end of the growing season. They flower during the summer months and the flowers form at the top of a single stem. Kingdom
