A hardy late spring through to summer flowering bulb. Very easy to grow, needing little care with low water requirements. A vivid range of colours, shapes, and styles all with differing perfumes are available. Prepare a hole to the depth of 20cm, dig in some manure. Plant your bulbs with the roots downward and cover with 5cm of soil. Use an all-round fertiliser or organic compost at the time of planting. Liliums form clumps over time and can be divided over early winter then spread around the garden. Liliums do not require yearly lifting and like to be left in for many years. Ideal when planted with other bulb life, like Solomons Seal, Peonies, or cottage perennials.
