Which month is suitable for planting lilies?

When to plant lilies

Lilies are best planted in March because the climate temperature is most suitable for growth. They can also be planted in August-September in autumn when the temperature is around 15 degrees, which is more suitable for germination. If they are grown in potted plants, the time needs to be postponed.

Lily harvest time/flowering time

Lilies generally bloom around April to July each year, and the flowering period can last about 3 months. The flowering time varies for different varieties, so it is necessary to apply some phosphorus fertilizer before flowering, which is more beneficial for flowering.

Lily planting methods and key points

1. Choose scales: When planting lilies, you need to choose more suitable scales for planting. Be sure to use thicker ones, and soak them in disinfectant for about 30 minutes before planting.

2. Growth environment: After planting, lilies need a suitable temperature environment, preferably kept at around 15-25 degrees. They prefer a warm climate. If the temperature is higher than 35 degrees, it will lead to poor growth.

3. Fertilizer and water management: When caring for lilies, they need to be watered every 3-5 days. The amount of water needs to be increased when it is hot in summer. In spring and summer, fertilizers need to be applied every half a month.
