Hello Fiery Cloud

I grow many species and hybrids of Lilium in Hawaii (Zone 11). The most

important part is to GROW THE PLANTS FROM SEED, so they will be able to
tolerate your conditions. Almost any trumpet species (or hybrid) will
probably do well for you. Lilium formosanum is probably a good place to
start.

L. longiflorum, from the Ryukyu Islands, is tolerant of warm conditions.

I had trouble growing it for a few years, until I found that under my
Zone 11 conditions it required a dry rest in the hottest months, August
and September. I resume water sometime in October, and plants bloom in
the spring.

Others that have flowered (from seed) are L. lankongense, L. callosum, L.

lancifolium, L. leucanthum, L. henryi, L. sulphureum, L. rosthornii.
None of these get a cold period. There are many more species that I am
growing, but they are too young to flower.

OT hybrids (Oriental x Trumpet), especially tetraploids, grow very

vigorously, and a few have already flowered (again, from seed).

Good Luck

Hello:

Have anyone found the data which have more detail of the perennialing

experiment

of cornell?

http://www.flowerbulbs.cornell.edu/index.html

Though the warmest of the place where they are is USDA zone 7 where are

still

colder than my house, but I think that these data should make me know

which

should be tried first.

And I would like to know which I try last.

The experiment only have the name of the best performer, but no the

remains.

http://www.flowerbulb.nl/RP/jaarverslag%202003.pdf

The file have some data of species and specialty bulbs. But I would like

to know

more of the detail result of the other horticulture varieties.

PS. they seem have a new paper on the Lily perenialization.
