Abstract
With the purpose of obtaining Lilium selections suitable for Italian conditions, 76 varieties, most of them belonging to the "Asiatic Hybrids" division, were tested by means of a "diallelic (partial and incomplete)" crossing design.
The following characters were observed:

  1. – number of flowering plants after one year of cultivation

  2. – days required to flower (from bulbs)

  3. – number of flowers per stem

  4. – plants size

Of the 410 combinations of crosses carried out, only 69 families with a suitable size were considered.
The 36 parents of these progenies appear interesting not only for their fertility but also for the large variability shown in the studied characters.
