I don't know why the package would suggest planting toad lilies in full sun, especially in Florida. Looking online I have yet to find any toad lily that likes full sun, even in zone 5. They are all listed as preferring part to full shade and the lower south you go the more shade they prefer it seems.

I planted mine last year in the shade and it has lived though all the cold this winter and is now showing lots of growth. This picture was taken today.
