- Asiatic lilies are more cold-hardy and can thrive in USDA zones 3 to 9.
- Oriental lilies are less cold-tolerant and are best suited for zones 5 to 9.
- Growing Guide Instructions for Planting Asiatic and Oriental Lily Bulbs:
- 1. Choosing the Right Location:
Select a planting site that receives at least 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day.

Ensure the soil is well-draining to prevent waterlogged conditions, as lilies don't like sitting in soggy soil.
- 2. Preparing the Soil:
Lilies prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.0.

Incorporate organic matter like compost into the soil to improve fertility and drainage.
- 3. Planting the Bulbs:
Plant the bulbs in the spring or fall, with spring planting being more common for most gardeners.

Dig holes that are approximately 6 to 8 inches deep and space them about 8 to 12 inches apart.

Place the bulbs in the holes, pointy end up, and cover them with soil, gently patting it down.
- 4. Watering:
Water the newly planted bulbs thoroughly after planting to help them establish roots.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged throughout the growing season.
- 5. Mulching:
Apply a layer of organic mulch around the lilies to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
- 6. Fertilizing:
Fertilize the lilies in early spring when new growth appears and again after they finish blooming.

Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer or a fertilizer formulated specifically for lilies.
- 7. Staking (for Oriental lilies):
As Oriental lilies have taller stems, consider staking them to support their growth and prevent bending or breaking.
- 8. Deadheading (for both types):
Remove faded flowers regularly to encourage more blooms and prevent seed formation.
- 9. Winter Care:
In colder zones, add a layer of mulch or straw over the lily bulbs in late fall to protect them from freezing temperatures.
- By following these instructions and providing the appropriate care, you can enjoy the enchanting beauty and fragrance of Asiatic and Oriental lilies as they brighten up your garden during their blooming season.
- ***We recommend that you wait 2 weeks from the date of receipt before repotting your plants, to allow them to recover from the shock of shipping***

About this item

Product details

Oriental lilies are the lovely “late bloomers” of the lilium family. These stunning beauties bloom after Asiatic lilies, continuing the vibrant, colorful parade in the landscape well into late summer. Growing oriental lily bulbs is fairly easy provided you have a well-prepared site for bulbs, plenty of sun and good drainage. Performs well in both the landscape and containers. Oriental lilies grow 24-48" tall.
