What zones can Nymph Lily grow in?

Nymph Lily is hardy in USDA Zones 4–8. Inside that range it survives winter in the ground; outside it, grow it as an annual or a container plant you protect.

Is Nymph Lily deer resistant?

Not reliably. Deer may browse Nymph Lily, especially tender spring growth — plan on repellents or fencing where pressure is high.
