The difference between wild lily and lily

1. Differences in stems

Some of the stems of wild lilies have purple stripes on the top, while others have small nipple-shaped protrusions on the bottom. Lily stems are cylindrical, green, and often have purple spots.

2. The difference between leaves

The leaves of wild lily are scattered, generally gradually becoming smaller from bottom to top, and are lanceolate or narrow lanceolate, and later grow into strips. The leaves of lily are alternate, lanceolate to elliptical-lanceolate, with arc-shaped veins. In some varieties, the leaves are directly inserted into the water.

3. The difference between flowers

The flowers of wild lilies are trumpet-shaped, milky white in color, with a little purple on the outside and no spots. Large, solitary or several flowers arranged together in an umbrella shape. The flowers of lilies are funnel-shaped, mostly white in color, and grow alone at the top of the stem.
