Lilies
Herbaceous flowers of the genus Lilium, noted for their large tepals and fragrant scent. They grow from bulbs. Most species are native to the temperate northern hemisphere. They comprise a genus of about 110 species in the lily family (Liliaceae). They are important as large showy flowering garden plants. Additionally, they are important culturally and in literature in much of the world. Some species are sometimes grown or harvested for the edible bulbs. The species in this genus are the true lilies. Many other plants exist with "lily" in the common English name, some of which are quite unrelated to the true lilies.

A more complex answer is that Sprekelia is sometimes called the orchid amaryllis, but it belongs with the Amaryllidaceae family, as does the Belladonna Lily that is most often called 'amaryllis'. Neither belong to the family 'orchideaceae'.
What is the biblical meaning of lilies of the field?
The phrase the lilies of the field is part of Jesus' sermon on the mount as recorded at Matthew 6:26-34 (compare Luke 12:27-31.)
At this point in his sermon he was encouraging his listeners to put the kingdom of God first in their lives, and not to worry too much about other daily/mundane necessities, such food and, in this particular instance, clothing.
"And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?" ~King James Version.
Some have suggested that Jesus may have been referring to a particular type of wild flower when he said the lilies of the field. Alternatively, as the context indicates, perhaps he was just referring to vegetation in general. Either way, he was illustrating his good counsel with an example drawn from nature, using something that all people, from their own knowledge and experience, can understood and appreciate.
Jesus therefore used the poetic phrase the lilies of the field as part of his well-known Sermon on the Mount, the overall objective of which was to teach his followers to have a more spiritual attitude and outlook, and, in this particular context cited, to remind them that God knows and will always satisfy the needs of those who look to God.

You can, but it is a little trickier than some transplants. The corms are quite deep, 10 to 12" inches deep. It is best to wait until bloom season is done, then look for a place with heavy corm growth. You will dig down, and then carefully split some corms off of this clump. The foliage is likely to die off when it is transplanted, but as long as you were gentle with them, they will grow back.

Consider The Lilies - Joyful Singers
Consider the lilies
They don't toil or spin
And there's not a king
With more splendor than them
Consider the sparrow
They don't plant or sow
But they're fed by the master
Who watches him grow
We have a heavenly father above
With eyes full of mercy
And a heart full of love
He really cares when
Your head is bowed low
Consider the lilies
And then you will know
May I introduce you
To this friend of mine
Who hangs out the stars
And tells the sun when to shine
He kisses the flowers
Each morning with dew
But He's not too busy
To love me and you
We have a heavenly father above
With eyes full of mercy
And a heart full of love
He really cares when
Your head is bowed low

What does a bouquet of lilies mean?
It depends on how you're asking it. I've read in a book once that when someone gives you lilies they represent death. If they're given to you by a past rival or current one then it's obviously not a good sign. If they're given to you by your own mother then obviously there isn't anything to fear. However, unless for some reason ur own mother is out to get you then that's something you should worry about.
