The community of Idyllwild and Festival organizers welcome you to Idyllwild\u2019s 2nd-annual Lemon Lily Festival. The 2010 Festival was a huge success and a first step in accomplishing the three ongoing goals of our mission: celebration, education and restoration of our precious native wildflower, the Lemon Lily (Lilium parryi).<\/p>\n
Last summer, Idyllwild turned out to celebrate our Lemon Lily and to welcome the thousands of visitors who made the trip up the Hill to join us. Local community groups planned and produced many events. Hundreds of Idyllwild residents became Lemon Lily experts and educators and volunteered as Lemon Lily Ambassadors throughout the weekend. \n
