Flowers associated with the Virgin Mary (6)

I believe the answer is:

lilies

(Other definitions for lilies that I've seen before include "'Showy flowers, most have a strong smell (6)'" , "bloomers" , "Flowering plants" , "'''Consider the ... of the field, how they grow'' (Bible) (6)'" , "Plants with showy pendulous flowers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
