Today Taimali has already become the principal growing region for lilies in Taiwan. Every year during the spring and autumn harvest seasons, the yellow-orange lily bulbs grow all over the mountains. After the lily flowers are picked, they still require processing. The residents of Taimali are accustomed to laying the lilies out in front of their houses or on top of their roofs to dry in the sun.
如今太麻里已成為台灣金針的主要栽培區，每年春、秋兩季收穫時，橙黃的金針花苞漫山遍野，金針花摘下後，還要加工，太麻里居民習慣把金針鋪在屋前空地或屋頂上暴曬，金黃的金針便綿延數條街弄，閃耀在陽光下。
