    A relatively small number of varieties of lilies have been spread in culture, so many species that grow wild in nature are used.

    Of the tested varieties for breeding in the Central Black Earth zone, lily Slender, Ruby, Ruby, Inchantment, Destiny, Joan Evan, Michurin's Memory, Daughter of Fialkova, Youth are recommended.

    These lilies are quite winter-hardy and stable in the middle zone.

    Lilia Fialkovaya, deduced by IV Michurin, deserves attention mainly for breeding work. Its drawbacks are the difficulty of reproduction and weak resistance against fungal diseases. It works well on light sandy or sandy loamy soils.

    The most interesting among the lovers are the most beautiful among the lilies species: speciozum( special) and auratum( golden) - comes from Japan and the adjacent to it even more southern islands. These species, however, are low-resistant in our conditions and require selection work with them. Re-wintering in the middle zone is possible only if there is good shelter. The same is true for the lilies of the Philippine and long-flowered lilies, which are even less winter-hardy in our conditions.
