Our current 69th Annual International Lily Show & Symposium Sponsors;
'Leslie Woodriff' Lilium Level
In 1962, the Garden's modern history began when the Society agreed to help create and manage a new public garden. With the groundbreaking for the Chicago Botanic Garden in 1965 and its opening in 1972, the Society created a permanent site on which to carry out its mission. The Garden today is an example of a successful public-private partnership. It is owned by the Forest Preserve District of Cook County and operated by the Chicago Horticultural Society.
The Potomac Lily Society, aka PLS, is an organization committed to furthering the appreciation of true bulb lilies of the genus Lilium. The Potomac Lily Society was started during the 1950's and still boasts one charter member among its active members. In a typical year we sponsor a lily show, host a spring luncheon and an autumn picnic, publish a quarterly newsletter and conduct a bulb sale. We maintain close contact with and support two sister organizations, the Garden Club of Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic Lily Society.
