Key item features
- Asiatic Lily Bulbs:
- Asiatic lilies are known for their vibrant and bold colors, ranging from whites, yellows, oranges, pinks, and reds. They often have freckles or speckles on their petals, adding to their allure.
- These lilies typically have smaller flowers and a more compact, upright growth habit compared to their Oriental counterparts.
- They are among the earliest lilies to bloom, usually appearing in early to mid-summer.
- Asiatic lilies are generally easier to grow and more tolerant of varying conditions, making them a great choice for novice gardeners.
- Oriental Lily Bulbs:
- Oriental lilies are revered for their large, fragrant flowers that come in a wide array of colors, including white, pink, magenta, and bi-color varieties.
- Their blooms are often larger and more open compared to Asiatic lilies, and they have a distinctive star-like appearance.
- Oriental lilies bloom later in the summer, usually in mid to late summer, and their captivating fragrance fills the air, making them a popular choice for cut flower arrangements.
- While they require a bit more care and attention than Asiatic lilies, their beauty and fragrance make the effort worthwhile.
- Planting Zone Information:
- Asiatic and Oriental lilies are hardy in different USDA planting zones, so it's crucial to know your zone before planting:
- 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***

Proud Products Guarantee!!
Plants from Daylily Nursery are guaranteed to arrive healthy and green. If you have any concerns or are dissatisfied within the first five days of receiving your plants, please email or call our office so that we can help make it right! Plants require proper care and nourishment to adapt to their new surroundings. Unfortunately, if your plants have received less-than-ideal care or were purchased for planting outside of your recommended growing zone, your purchase isn't covered by our guarantee. Zone recommendations are provided in our listings.
Plants are delicate, living things and we take pride in shipping them thoughtfully, securely and with great care. However, once they leave our facility they may encounter issues in transit that we have no control or influence over. Please note that much of our plant material, while hardy, may arrive damaged or no longer viable if shipped in severe weather conditions. Exercise caution and use your best judgment before ordering during unusually hot or cold weather (below 32 degrees F, or in excess of 95F for shipping purposes), as these extremes may leave your plant vulnerable to damage. We are proud of our products and our reputation for providing excellent plant material. We strive to keep our prices fair and reasonable and to deliver to you the best product on the market, and for that product to arrive at our customers' doors as pristine as the day it was packed. Please help us to ensure that you receive your plant material in peak condition and ready to plant.

Successful gardening requires careful planning, often full seasons in advance. Do your research and plan ahead for the best planting time in your area. Plants with delicate new roots need the best possible head start in getting established before winter, even hardy evergreen varieties. The optimal time for planting for most of our material is in mid to late spring, past the danger of hard frost. This allows your plants the longest possible growing season. Summer and very early fall are also suitable, as long as your plant is placed in optimal conditions and receives adequate water during the hotter, dryer periods of the summer. Late fall and winter are very risky in most areas, as our plant material ships from cozy greenhouses and will struggle adapting to very cold or frozen soil, or abrupt changes in temperature. This can easily cause damage, stunting, or failure to thrive. When in doubt about suitable planting times or zone compatible plants for your area, reach out to your local Agricultural Extension Office.
If issues with your plants arise within the first 30 days of receipt, please email or call our office. Our knowledgeable staff will review your concerns and provide guidance and troubleshooting, or a one-time replacement if necessary. The customer assumes responsibility for the cost of shipping the replacement.
Regarding orders placed for deciduous trees during their dormant period (winter or early spring) that fail to break dormancy by May 30th, we extend our guarantee beyond the five-day notification period. Please email or call us by May 30th so we can review your order and provide the necessary assistance. Please bear in mind that we may ask for photos- this aids us in assisting you with your plant. Often stress from shipping can be the cause of delayed development, which may be overcome with informed troubleshooting.
Plants are our passion and our business, and we take pride in building lasting relationships with our customers, based on reliably good service and trust in our product. However, plants are living things, vulnerable to unpredictable conditions and circumstances every day, just like people. We do our very best to provide top quality plant material, and with your help, we know that we can! Happy Planting!
