Hi - I am in 7b - I use terra cotta 'lily pots' - that is a pot with straight sides - you can get them in various sizes. I've bought them from Home Depot. I have one pot - about 12" dia. x 12" tall with about 10 lilies in it. Also several smaller lily pots with 4 or 5 lilies... I snug them up by a really big, old azalea to go through the winter. No other protection. They come back bigger and more every spring.

Here is a picture of one off the net - mine are plain terra cotta with a rolled edge on the top but you'll get the idea of what you are looking for at the store.
