USDA Hardiness Planting Zones

To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.

  • If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will survive the winter temperatures in your area.
  • If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).

Plant Information

This hard-to-find lily is a show-stopper in shaded wildflower gardens. Native to Siberia and China this lily favors swamps, wet meadows, and wet woods. So that tells you to plant yours where they won't be flooded but will have plenty of moisture.

This fabulous lily, when happy, can bloom with as many as 20-30 flowers on a single plant.

The name, Turks Cap refers to the recurved petals, which someone saw as similar to a turban.
