Are arum and St Joseph lilies the same? When is the best time to start planting lilies? Should I start them off in pots indoors/in tunnel or can they go directly into the gournd?

Arum lily is also called Easter lily and its botanical name is Zantedeschia aethiopica, part of the Arum family.
St Joseph’s lily is also known as Madonna lily and its name is Lilium candidum, part of the lily family.
Both have white flowers but are not related. Both are used as cut flowers.
