Planting Tips

Fall is probably the best time to plant, but the best selection is typically found in the spring when dutch suppliers inundate the market with endless varieties. Either way, they'll do well regardless of when they're planted in fall or spring. 

Planting is pretty easy. Just be sure to select a site that has good sun, good drainage, has some organic matter worked into the soil  when you plant or plant up in pots for a summer of blooms.  

Most bulbs go down 4-6 inches deep. The larger the bulb, the deeper it  goes down. 

                                                                        Best of luck and happy fall or spring lily planting!
