>>>> Some of the prettiest of flowers are the ones that are the species or the wild flowers......
Most definitely! The colorful petunias and zinnias (for instance) are great if that's what your into, but that's not for me. I am a wild plant nut, and happy to be one.

>>>> on a side note can you plant lily bulbs in containers and then transplant them to the garden at the end of the season?
That's a good plan, and it works well. If your lilies in the pots die back in late summer, there is no need to wait until fall to plant them in the new garden if it is ready. They will establish roots better for the coming season if they have more time.
