Lilies have blossomed in our garden, which continues to bloom.
The lily genus (Lilium) has over 3,000 varieties. They differ in flower shape (cup-shaped, tubular, star-shaped), color, and fragrance.
Lilies are perennial bulbous plants; their flowers consist of six free tepals adapted for pollination by insects.
Interesting fact: pure blue lilies do not exist in nature.
The first rudbeckia flowers have also appeared, and roses continue to bloom.
