When does lily sprout and grow leaves?

Lily germination time

The time when lilies germinate and grow leaves has little to do with the season. It mainly depends on the planting time, plant variety and maintenance temperature. Generally speaking, the most suitable germination temperature for lily seeds is 18-25℃. If properly maintained, they will germinate 3-4 weeks after sowing.

Lily germination requirements

1. Temperature

When caring for lilies, it is best to control the ambient temperature at 18-25℃. Lilies have relatively high requirements for temperature. If the temperature is too high or too low, the seeds will not germinate.

2. Humidity

Lilies like moisture, so it is best to keep the soil slightly moist at all times, which can also increase their germination speed.

Lily growth habits and characteristics

Lily likes to grow in a cool, dry and sunny environment. The plant is most afraid of waterlogging and has no strict requirements on soil. The most suitable growth temperature is 13-17℃.

It is best to plant lilies in August and October, when the climate is relatively stable. The planting soil should be loose, fertile and well-drained. The plants should be exposed to soft light during the growth period, have sufficient water during the flowering period, and be regularly applied with thin fertilizers.
