Asiatic Lilies

$16.99

Asiatic Lily (Lilium asiaticum) is a stunning and popular flowering bulb plant known for its vibrant and colorful blooms. The flowers have a unique trumpet-like shape with prominent stamens and are often adorned with contrasting spots or patterns. Asiatic lilies are prized for their beauty and are commonly used in floral arrangements, garden borders, and containers. These varieties, Forever Linda and Happy Sun, have a red-yellow or yellow flower.

To ensure the Asiatic Lily thrives, it requires a sunny location in the garden with at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight each day. Well-draining soil is essential to prevent waterlogged conditions, as lilies prefer moist but not waterlogged soil. Adequate watering during dry spells is necessary to maintain their health and encourage robust flowering. Applying a balanced fertilizer in the spring can promote healthy growth and abundant blooms. Asiatic lilies are generally low-maintenance plants and will return year after year with proper care.

Asiatic Lilies are herbaceous perennial plants. They thrive in USDA hardiness zones 3 to 9, making them suitable for a wide range of climates. In zone 7, they can withstand the temperature conditions and return year after year as reliable perennials. The height of Asiatic lilies can vary between 1 to 6 feet (30 to 180 cm), depending on the cultivar. They grow from bulbs and typically produce multiple stems with flowers that face upward or slightly nodding.

Asiatic lilies are considered toxic to cats. Ingesting any part of the plant, including the leaves, flowers, or pollen, can cause severe kidney damage in felines. Pet owners should exercise caution when growing Asiatic lilies in households with cats.
