Pat Stamile from Sayville specializes in lilies that are purple and gold. He said about his purple and gold Sayville flower, "I grew up in Sayville and yes the colors were suggestive of the Sayville colors." and he created a flower of the "purest lavender" The reason why these flowers are so popular at wakes and funerals is because purple symbolizes death and gold symbolizes life. Jill Morton said "Purple symbolizes death" and "mourning." In "Visual Design: Color and Typography" by Amaris Vigil it said "purple symbolizes death." According to Hemat "Gold symbolizes reincarnation, the awakening of consciousness after the fall of the profane world. The indestructible metal stands for the center of spiritual being, for the freeing of the being from transitory existence to eternity. Gold symbolizes the sun, the sign of Leo, the god Apollo, the element of light."
Thus purple and gold stand for life and death.
The symbol of kings is purple and gold because the king has the power of life
and death over his subjects. F. Barnes wrote ""Purple and gold represents
royalty, as the antichrist presents himself." Purple represents dusk, gold
represents the sunrise. The lightning bolt, which is the symbol of Sayville
signifies instant
death. When asked the question "Is the purple and gold lily really the most
appropriate for funerals?" Pat Stamile said "Yes."
Thus, the Sayville purple and gold lily, with colors meaning life and death would be the most appropriate flower for a funeral.

"Purple is not worn to weddings in Japan because the Japanese believe that it
fades faster and symbolizes the fading of marital happiness. It is worn in
neither Brazil nor Mexico because it symbolizes death."
"Luke 10 18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from
heaven."

Propagation is exceedingly simple. Seed can be used but, because of the possibilities of hybridization, you need to either obtain the seed from a known wild source or hand pollinate plants in the garden whilst using some method of excluding pollinating insects from the flowers. Of course, this is only important if you want to breed a species true to type. The seed of cultivars will not usually breed true to type, the seedlings displaying a mixture of characteristics from the parents of the cultivar. Hybridisation has been widely used in order to produce new ornamental cultivars and it does also present the opportunity to start breeding for superior edibility. Seed is best sown in early to mid spring in a greenhouse. Use a freely draining compost and cover the seeds to twice their diameter. Germination is usually good, taking place in about 3 weeks from sowing. Prick out the seedlings into individual 3 inch pots in a fairly rich compost as soon as they are large enough to handle and then grow them on in the greenhouse for the rest of the growing season. It is often possible to plant out these seedlings in late spring of the following year but, if the plants still look small or you have a slug or snail problem in your garden, then pot them into larger pots and grow them on for another year before planting out in the late spring of the following year. Division is very easy, and this is the only way of ensuring that named cultivars remain true. Most plants come into growth very early in the year, some species will actually start growing in the previous autumn and will already be an inch or two tall by January. I have found late winter to early spring to be the best time for dividing the clumps, though other growers will also do this in late summer once the plants have finished flowering, or in the autumn once growth has died down.
