The white Trumpet shaped flower that represents the Easter season, as known as the Easter Lily. This beautiful flower symbolizes hope, new beginnings and life.
The Easter Lily is a very challenging flower to grow and care for. It is a very attractive flower when it is in full bloom. But is difficult to cultivate year round and you may have troubles getting the flower to rebloom. You know when the blooming is over because the color begins to fade. They are harvested in the fall(the bulbs) and then are packed and shipped to greenhouses. They are then planted in pots and forced under controlled conditions to bloom for the Easter holiday.
In 1996, 11.5 million Easter Lily bulbs were shipped to commercial greenhouses in the US and in Canada.
