Description

LA Hybrids are a combination of both the Asiatic & Longiflorum Lilium and produces a larger Asiatic style flower with the added stem length of the Longiflorum. Stem length is approximately 90cm tall and usually produces 4-5 blooms per stem. Bulbs will flower approx. 15 weeks after planting.

Liliums require a well drained soil; heavy or clay soils are completely unsuitable as the bulbs will run the risk of rotting. Protection from strong winds is recommended as their stems and flowers are easily damaged. Liliums prefers a full sun position and are ideal for growing in pots and containers. For best results always use a potting mix for bulbs and be sure to fertilise on a regular basis

Tips: Plant immediately after purchase and do not allow the bulbs to dry out.

Supplied as dormant bulbs.

How to Plant

Suitable for all climates. Liliums may require staking, especially if located in a shady location, more shade results in taller stems. Enjoys being left undisturbed.

Soil

Enjoys a well drained, slightly acidic, organic rich soil.

Fertilise

Prepare the soil with well-rotted animal manure or a complete fertiliser before planting. Mulch well to keep soil cool and moist. Liquid fertilising once plants are setting buds is beneficial to keep lower foliage green. Top dress with fertiliser in late winter.

Watering

Water regularly during the warmer months.

Prunning

It is best to remove old flower heads once flowers fade to promote bulb growth. Cut down to ground level once foliage has died off completely. Bulbs can be left in the ground to naturalise or lifted and separated. Replant without delay. Dislikes being moved, wet feet.
