Description
The pistil is the large center part of the lily flower. At the top of the pistil is the stigma. The stigma is rounded and is sticky to the touch. It is sticky so that it can catch pollen. It is attached to the ovary with a stem-like portion called the style. The ovary is the big round portion at the bottom of the pistil. The Tiger Lily stands for wealth and prosperity. The tiger lily is considered native to China, Japan and Korea, though its true origins have not been discovered. These bright orange flowers offer the gardener a beautiful cut flower, which lasts up to two weeks in a vase.
