The lily is an emotive flower, with cultural connotations of
romance, remembrance, love and innocence. It is little wonder that
the lily can be found in literature, art and heraldry across Asia,
Europe and North America; where they have added dramatic elegance
to gardens for centuries. The next title in Pavilion’s series of
beautiful floral gardening guides celebrates the ornamental charm
and delicate petals of the lily. The book begins with the history
of this flower, from Greek and Roman mythology to the hybridization
of today. The beautifully-presented reference guide features more
than 50 well-loved and unusual varieties of lily, from the towering
and prolific Arabian Knight to the fiery Viva la Vida, the pink
pollen-free Distant Drum to the tall blonde bombshell Yelloween.
Find out how to care for your lilies, with practical tips for all
kinds of gardens, containers and balconies. With engaging
commentary on each bloom, easy-to-follow advice and glorious
photography, this book will appeal to everybody who is after the
best bloom for weddings, outdoor spaces or the most bountiful cut
flowers.
