Lilies are widely used in gardens, flower arrangements, and as cut flowers because they have a long vase life.

In addition, the Lily flower is also used for some medicinal purposes, such as treating fever, sore throat, and menstrual disorders.

Lily flowers have six petal-like segments, which may form the shape of a trumpet, with a more or less elongated tube.
