Lily Bulbs

Lily bulbs are most successful when planted in autumn, sometime between September and December. This gives your lilies the best chance at establishing their roots before the winter frosts settle in, and by springtime, they’ll have the start they need to thrive! If you’d prefer, you can plant in Spring, by the end of March, and still enjoy a healthy display of lilies throughout the summer.

How to Grow Lily Bulbs

When it comes to growing your lily bulbs, you’ll want to plant them with the pointed tip facing upwards, at a depth of around three times the size of your bulb. We recommend selecting a sunny spot in a container or borders, with well-draining soil to keep your lilies happy and healthy. Keep your soil moist, but avoid overwatering to prevent waterlogging. Once your flowers fade, we’d advise snipping the heads to prevent energy wastage.
