Plant Care & Growing Tips
Caring for your mixed lily flower bulbs is a straightforward process that will reward you with spectacular blooms. Lilies thrive in well-drained soil and prefer a location that receives ample sunlight. For best results, plant your bulbs in an area that gets at least 6 hours of full sun per day, though some varieties, especially Oriental lilies, can tolerate partial shade, particularly in hotter climates. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter and has good drainage to prevent rot. A slightly acidic to neutral soil pH is generally preferred by most lily varieties. When planting, typically in fall or early spring, dig a hole about 6-8 inches deep and place the bulb with the pointed end facing upwards. Space bulbs about 8-12 inches apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation.
Watering should be consistent, especially during dry spells and when the plants are actively growing and flowering. Keep the soil evenly moist but never waterlogged. Once established, some lilies, particularly the asiatic lily bulbs, can be quite drought-resistant. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced slow-release granular fertilizer, and again when buds appear, to encourage robust growth and abundant flowering. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage the plant to put energy into developing stronger bulbs for the following season, but leave the foliage intact until it yellows and dies back naturally, as this helps the bulb store energy. Most lilies are hardy in USDA Zones 4-9. Protect bulbs with a layer of mulch in colder zones to ensure winter survival. Watch out for common pests like lily beetles; organic pest control methods can be effective if an infestation occurs. The ease of care for these mixed lily flower bulbs makes them a joy for any gardener.
