Pat, you have to go to separate plants. The consensus seems to be the pod parent(female) seems to give most of the structure to the plant. So the stem strength, pedicels and general structure. The pollen parent provide more of the flower qualities. As far as flowers to flower it doesn't matter as long as the correct structures are there. Most lilies will not pollinate themselves and produce seed.
