Each year the North American Lily Society asks its members what their favorite lilies are. Of course, all of the lilies on the list are beautiful, but they are also lilies that perform well in the garden. The popularity poll is a great resource if you are looking for lilies to add to your collection, particularly if you are a new gardener.
The results of the 2009 Popularity Poll will be available online in the spring of 2010.
