"The 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 south to the Philippines. In the New World they extend from southern Canada through much of the United States."Wikipedia

Beautiful and very nicely framed. My sisters favourite flower but she can't have them in the house because she has a cat and it is not very well known that lilys are extremely toxic to cats a bit info below
Cats may be poisoned by lilies if they eat any part of the plant or flowers, (all parts of the plant are considered to be toxic for cats). Kittens are especially prone to being poisoned in this way because they explore and chew many things in their environment. However, older cats are often affected simply because they brush against the flower and get pollen on their coats. Later they groom the pollen off, and of course ingest the lilly pollen as they clean their fur.

When our lilies are in bloom I take so many photos of them, and always think of them as an Easter plant. I'm happy to see you post these in July ... they are truly beautiful!

Nice detail. I knew that about cats and lilies as your other commenter stated and that is why I never have them in my house. They smell sooooo good, though.
