What are plugs? Plugs are plants grown in 72-cell trays; each soil plug is 1.6” wide x 3.2” deep. Read more here.
Prairie Lily is a classic lily of woodland edges and remnant prairies. It’s also known as Wood Lily. Prairie Lily is short and humble with only a few flower stems, but it stands out among other native plants with its traditional lily flowers. It is popular with rabbits and deer, so make sure to keep it protected. Prairie Lily takes 2-4 years to bloom from seed—most of the lilies we sell are 2-3 year old plants but they probably won’t bloom until the following year or two.
If you buy these in fall, they may be dormant bulbs without stems—Prairie Lily sometimes goes dormant in mid-summer.

Prairie/Wood Lily (Lilium philadelphicum) doesn’t like growing among tall vigorous natives; plant Prairie Lily with other short flowers and grasses that don’t spread very much. Deer like eating lilies, so be sure to protect them. There are organic deer-repellent sprays that seem to work if applied consistently every 2 weeks.
