The hard part in designing a bed is deciding what you want. Do you want the lilys to bloom at the same time as other flowers? If so, then color is important. If the dont bloom at the same time...color is not important.(easier) Then you just have to deal with folige color and the heights of the plants. Here I tryed to make the colors work....orange orienpet, yellow yellowfluff, and purple cone flower. Unfortunately....the coneflower (1st year) did not reach its purple color while the other two were in bloom....maybe this year? We shall see. Notice that here the lily is in with plants all about the same height. I put the lily in front...of course.
