You've probably already done something with your beautiful lilies, but here's another idea if you haven't: how about putting them into some big containers? Then you can put them front and center to enjoy the magnificent blooms, then just drag (or roll?) the containers to an inconspicuous spot once they've finished their show for the year.

Something that keeps on blooming, like maybe Cannas, would make a better planting for that area. If you are diligent about cutting off the spent bloom stems, Cannas will keep putting up flowers all summer, and they have beautiful tropical-looking foliage, too.
