Activities & Events

The Society sponsors several annual events for its members:

  • a Fall bulb sale (Sept/Oct),
  • a judged lily show (July),
  • informational meetings, and
  • an annual general meeting.

CPLS also sponsors events that are open to the general public such as:

  • informational meetings,
  • judged lily shows (July),
  • information/display booth at Gardenscape (March or April), and
  • a Fall Bulb Sale (September/October).

The Society maintains a Heritage lily garden plot on the grounds of the University of Saskatchewan to display the glory of the garden lily and to honour the achievements of Canadian lily hybridizers.

CPLS helps fund scientific research of the genus Lilium, and provides scholarships in Horticulture Science to students attending the University of Saskatchewan, and Olds Agricultural College, Olds, Alberta.


How to Donate Bulbs for Sales

When people are lifting and dividing their lilies in fall, they may wish to donate a few bulbs to our bulb sale. Donations of bulbs are gratefully accepted, and as you probably know, profits from our sale go towards funding scholarships in horticulture at University of Saskatchewan and Olds College (Alberta), as well as enabling us to carry on with our various events.
