Image # A58-090; I captured this image of a Yellow Asian Lilly while visiting the Botanical Gardens in Wichita, Kansas. Lilies come mainly from the temperate woodlands of the Northern Hemisphere; therefore, they do not like dry heat. They are usually found growing near shrubs and other plants that shade their roots and keep the bulbs cool and moist. Asiatic hybrids were derived from a species that originated in Asia. They bloom in early summer, usually flowering for over a month. Their 4 to 6-inch blossoms, which may face up, out, or down, come in shades of red, orange, yellow, pink, lavender, and white.
