Lilium canadense. Â© Bill Hilton Jr. Canada Lily, Lilium canadense, a magnificent tall woodland lily, grows wild in damp meadows and thickets from Alabama to Quebec. The flowers are usually yellow, but may instead be orange or red, as illustrated in this photo. Seed-grown plants may take 5-6 years to flower, so planting Canada Lily bulbs is preferable.
