Most important with lily (Lilium) seed storage is that they must stay
dry.  Moisture (including high humidity), can significantly shorten the
storage life of the seed.  As Jane says, freezing is the best long term
option, and some experts feel it can actually aid the germination of some
species.  (I don't know about western American species.)   Be careful if
you are using an auto defrost freezer.  You will want to take the
precaution of extra insulation to prevent freeze/thaw cycles.
