Lily bulbs
The Lily is a real recommendation for the garden, beautiful plants that bloom for weeks and, if they are happy, come back for years. If you have no experience with lilies in your garden, you can always look at our site under Flower bulb information / Lilies. Here you will find an extensive description of How to plant and care for Lilies.
Planting Lilies
Lilies need fertile, well-drained soil with a thick layer of humus. They like moist, but not too wet soil. Plant them between October and April, even during frost. Lilies can withstand cold well, provided they are not exposed to too much wind and rain. Dig a trench 10-15 cm deep, loosen the soil and add fertilizer or humus if necessary. Plant the bulbs with the point upwards and cover with soil. Keep 25-30 cm distance between the bulbs, plant them in groups of three or five.
Caring for lilies
The lily shows explosive growth in the spring as soon as it comes above ground. Keep in mind, especially in the first year of planting, that the soil remains sufficiently moist so that the stem roots can develop well. In the following years, once the lily is established, this is less important because it has a well-developed root system - also under the bulb - that can provide the plant with water. In general, there is sufficient rain in the spring, but keep a close eye on this. The top layer of the soil can dry out quickly and this is precisely the part where the stem roots that ensure the rapid supply of water are located.
