Lily is a garden fairy. She can make any plant or flower bloom and grow, spends all her time in her garden, and one of her dearest friends is a bumblebee named Bumble. Though she always works hard, she delights in sitting and watching the grass grow. Lily is arguably the most important garden-talent in the books, featuring in several early stories as the leading expert on garden matters, and the most-commonly seen of her group. However, she does not appear in the films, which use Rosetta as the garden-talent representative. Thereafter, Rosetta gets two books of focus, and Lily one more.
