The Easter Lilies in my garden came as a single plant from a dear friend about 15 years ago. I enjoyed the potted plant until the flowers faded, then planted them in a shady area of the garden where they thrived and multiplied over the years. I've read that the flowers should be dead-headed as they fade and the yellowing foliage should be cut back, but I've never done either ... I just let nature take it's course and they seem to do fine. I love to see the new sprouts and blooms each spring and although I've read that the flowers are fragrant, I've only noticed a very slight fragrance.
