Flowers that symbolise purity and virtue (6)

I believe the answer is:

lilies

(Other definitions for lilies that I've seen before include "Flowering plants" , "Plants with showy pendulous flowers" , "Luke: ` `Behold the ...... of the field' '" , "'''Consider the ... of the field, how they grow'' (Bible) (6)'" , "Flowers for when 'e is ill" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
