Description: Intense eye-catching orange blooms steal the show in June and July. Wood Lilies are beautiful to see alone or in masses and they are a favorite of Hummingbirds. Wood Lilies grown from seed are very slow growing and will take 5-7 years to bloom. Never pick Wood Lilies flowers as you will likely pull up the bulb and kill the plant.

Found in Nature: Open woods and well drained meadows, ditches.

Distribution: Prairies, Foothill, Montane
