If you're planning your garden according to bloom times, they generally go like this: Asiatic, LA, Trumpet (longiflorum), OTs then Orientals. Keep in mind that within any of these hybrid groups there are early and late bloomers.

mm ~ for example, I see that you have Red Velvet listed as a late season. It will bloom earlier with the other Asistics. Casa Blanca and Stargazer will bloom after most OTs and about the same time as each other. L. henryi and rubrum will probably be among the last lilies to bloom.

Here in my 5b garden, nearly all of the lilies are blooming about the 3rd week in June with the exception of the OTs and orientals, then henryi finishing up the show in late July / early August.

Here you can see mostly asiatics, trumpets that are ready to pop and a very early oriental at the bottom.
