Prairie lily?

How this flower and I became acquainted is really a story of second choice. I came into our class of
%26quot;Knowing Nature%26quot; (otherwise known as sociology 309) with little knowledge of what we were in for
during the semester. As I found out we were developing web pages, yes the one you are now reading.
Our goal was to find a prairie flower, grass, weed, etc. that really sparked our interest or called out to us.
As it so happens I originally chose another plant as my topic, but it so turns out that that one was already
taken. That is how the prairie lily and I got to know one another for the first time. I had never heard of or
seen the prairie lily prior to my experience in class or if I had it went unnoticed. Reading about the lily I
have learned a lot of interesting and unique information. As I have gotten to know this plant and it%26#039;s
history better I am glad that I had the opportunity to share the prairie Lilly%26#039;s story with you. I hope that
viewing this web page and the story of the Prairie Lily will spark an interest in you, not only to learn more
about this plant but other prairie plants as well.

PLANT DESCRIPTION
WOOD LILIES GROW 1 TO 3 FEET HIGH FROM PERENNIAL BULBS. BULBS ARE ABOUT 1 INCH IN DIAMETER. FLOWERS 1 TO 3 IN A TERMINAL CLUSTER, WITH 3 SEPALS AND 3 PETALS. THELANCEOLATE LEAVES, 1 TO 4 INCHES LONG AND ABOUT 1/4 TO 1/2 INCH WIDE, AND NARROWED AT BOTH ENDS. RED-ORANGE ,UPRIGHT, TERMINAL, OPEN BELL SHAPED FLOWER WITH ONE TO FIVE BLOOMS.
THE FLOWERS USUALLY HAVE PURPLISH SPOTS ON THE LOWER PARTS OF THE INNER SIDE, AND TAPER TO NARROW , STALK LIKE BASES. INSIDE THE FLOWER ARE SIX PROMINENT, ERECT STAMENS SURROUNDING A CENTRAL STYLE.
PROPAGATION
THESE PLANTS ARE DIFFICULT TO ESTABLISH AND HAVE A SHORT LIFE SPAN. THEY ARE NEVER FOUND LONG IN THE SAME PLACE. BEST BY DIVISION OF OFFSET SCALES PLANTED 1 INCH DEEP. NEED TO OBTAIN THE SCALES AFTER THE PLANT DIES BACK IN THE FALL. MUCH OF THE EARLY GROWTH OCCURS UNDERGROUND, AND VERY LITTLE STALK DEVELOPMENT OCCURS WHILE THE PLANTS ARE YOUNG. YOU SHOULD PLANT SEVERAL PLANTS TOGETHER BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT CROSS-POLLINATION IS NECESSARY FOR REPRODUCTION. THEY ARE ADAPTABLE ONCE ESTABLISHED. ADDING COMPOST TO THE SOIL IS VERY BENEFICIAL TO THE SURVIVAL OF THESE PLANTS. WILD LILIES GROWN FROM SEED WILL ONLY PRODUCE ONE LEAF THEIR FIRST YEAR AND WILL TAKE AN ADDITIONAL YEAR TO BLOOM.
GERMINATION
THE WOOD LILY IS VERY EASY TO GERMINATE BUT TAKES A LONG TIME. THE PLANTS EARLY LIFE IS UNDERGROUND, PRODUCING ONLY 1 MONOCOTYLEDON LEAF THE FIRST YEAR. PLANTING SHOULD BE DONE IN THE FALL OR TO STORE THE SEED AT 35 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT UNTIL SPRING. FOR THIS PLANT TO GROW IT NEEDS STRATIFICATION 33 - 38 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT FOR 60 DAYS.
GROWING CONDITIONS
DRY TO MOIST THICKETS, OPEN WOODS, AND CLEARINGS AND PRAIRIES
SEASON
--FLOWERING TIME IS MID JUNE TO MID AUGUST, RARELY AS LATE AS MID SEPTEMBER

HABITAT AND DISTRIBUTION
HABITAT
Found throughout the tallgrass prairie and in open woods and thickets east to Maine, south to Kentucky and West Viginia. In spite of its name, the wood lily is often found in the prairie biome, especially the tallgrass prairie region. It prefers the more acid and sandy soils. Additional varieties extend the range to the West Coast.
RANGE
Wide spread in Southern Canada and NorthEastern United States, hence West to British Columbia and South to Illinois, Nebraska and New Mexico.
