True Lilies are monocotyledonous, so the answer is three or multiples of three

Well, honey, plants with 4 or 5 petals are usually classified as dicots. Monocots typically have petals in multiples of 3, but hey, there are always exceptions to keep things interesting in the botanical world. So, in short, if you're counting petals, you're most likely dealing with dicots, not monocots.

Lilies have six petals or three petals and three sepals. Sometimes you can't tell the petal from the sepal. Each petal is sort of oval with some lilies having very large petals and others having smaller petals. Sometimes the petals are curved backwards such as the Turk's cap lily.
Some examples of flowers with different colored petals include roses, tulips, sunflowers, and lilies.

Buttercups are monocots, as such they will have floral parts in multiples of 3; meaning 3, 6 or 9. Buttercups usally have 6
Lily bulbs and petals tend to be edible. However, stargazer lilies are toxic to cats.
Depends entirely on the flower. Monocotyledonous flowers have floral parts in multiples of 3 - so they would have either 3, 6, 9 (etc.) petals. Dicotyledonous flowers have floral parts in multiples of 4 or 5 - so they could have 4, 8, 12, 16 (etc.), or 5, 10, 15 (etc.) petals.
