History of the lily
Originally, lilies were distributed throughout the Northern Hemisphere. The white 'Madonna lily' (Lilium candidum) is the symbol of purity, virginity and chastity. Many paintings depict this lily for this reason. The French king Louis used the lily on his shield around 1150 as a symbol of his name (Louis or Loys) and power. In previous centuries, lilies were grown in monastery gardens as a raw material for medicines. The fragrant flower was used as a decoration in worship. Until well into the second half of the twentieth century, the acreage of lilies remained limited. Lilies were mainly used as garden plants. New lilies were propagated from seed, often on small farms that combined cultivation with their other activities. Only after successful crosses were made, initially in the United States of America, that produced suitable lilies for the flower trade, did the acreage grow. The sale of lilies through the flower trade greatly aided the growth.
