The top 5 Lilies in my garden are not necessarily the ones that will multiply rapidly. LA lilies tend to multiply faster than most (almost all of them) they are also the most susceptible to the lily virus. Asiatic lilies also tend to multiply more rapidly. The Tiny Series (Tiny Sensation, Tiny Nanny, etc. are very short but multiply rapidly. The bulbs don't get very big before multiplying. One year I had a Tiny Nanny that was one and by the end of the season was 10, and all bloomed the following year.

3)White Henry
4)Miss Feya
5)Leslie Woodriff

There are so many. I guess I would just go with what is beautiful to you and go with that. In KY you should do well with most all of them, though I would keep all orientals out of the hottest day's sun, they will perform better for you.
