The genus Lilium are herbaceous flowering plants growing from bulbs. Most species are native to the temperate northern hemisphere. They comprise a genus of about 110 species in the lily family (Liliaceae). They are important as large showy flowering garden plants. Additionally, they are important culturally and in literature in much of the world. Some species are sometimes grown or harvested for the edible bulbs. The species in this genus are the true lilies. Many other plants exist with "lily" in the common English name, some of which are quite unrelated to the true lilies. RangeThe range of lilies in the Old World extends across much of Europe, across most of Asia to Japan, south to the Nilgiri mountains in India, and to the Philippines. In the New World they extend from southern Canada through much of the United States. They are commonly adapted to either woodland habitats, often montane, or sometimes to grassland habitats. A few can survive in marshland and epiphytes are known in southeast Asia (including L. arboricola). In general they prefer moderately acidic or lime-free soils. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License Do I absolutely need lily buds for hot and sour soup? Is there a substitute or can I leave it out altogether? Q. I've never made hot and sour soup before, but I love it! It looks so complicated. And I don't think that they sell lily buds in Cyprus.

Q. I have an indoor calla lily at my office and it has grown to about 1 1/2 feet tall. In the last week it has started to droop and the bloom is almost entirely green like the stalk. What is the next step I should take to prolong the existance of my plant? I am not much of a green thumb but would like to know how to make this one work, as it is the only pleasure I get from work. None of the plant looks unhealthy; it just lays down to the side. (like it's taking a nap) :) Asked by ady_8e_80 - Thu Aug 10 09:48:21 2006 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments A. Callas are bulbs. Your indoor calla looks like my outdoor callas right now, which is good. It's blooming period is over. It needs to stay near a window so that the greens can continue to store energy from the sun. Eventually the greens will turn yellow, then brown. When they start turning brown, you can cut the calla completely to the surface of the dirt. It cannot stay in your office at that point. All bulbs need a cooling period of 10-14 weeks during the late fall and winter. Put the container in your garage if you live in a very cold place (gets below 30 degrees during the winter) but wherever you put it it must have a steady temperature below 50 degrees. Keep it and the soil dry - humidity during the winter is bad, and can… [cont.] Answered by teresa c - Thu Aug 10 10:23:28 2006 From Yahoo Answer Search: "lily"  vogue.co.uk Tue, 20 Jul 2010 09:20:08 GMT+00:00 Vogue.com VOGUE photographer Nick Knight has enlisted the help of Lady Gaga and Lily Cole to launch SHOWstudio.com's latest film project - The Fashion Body. ...  celebrity.aol.co.uk Mon, 19 Jul 2010 15:36:44 GMT+00:00 Eleven Shutting Lily Allen up is not easy, as Cheryl Cole found out after she crossed paths with the mouthy singer (see below to see the quote that got Lily fired ...  newsok.com Thu, 15 Jul 2010 05:12:02 GMT+00:00 NewsOK.com Lily and Grace Bertelsen are competing in goat tying and breakaway roping at the International Finals Youth Rodeo. by ed godfrey leave a comment shawnee ...
