How to propagate lilies and what to pay attention to

Lily breeding time

Common methods of propagating lilies include sowing, cuttings and division. It is generally suitable for propagation in autumn, preferably in September or October, when the climate is more suitable and the survival rate of propagation is higher.

Lily breeding method

Lily division propagation

1. The time for lily division propagation is three to four weeks after the flowers have faded. Slowly dig out the bulbs, remove the soil around them, and then clean them.

2. Use a knife to cut the top of the bulb, remove the surrounding side buds, prepare sandy soil, and then plant the separated bulbs at a depth of about 10-15 cm.

Lily cutting propagation

First dig out the lily bulb, then break off its thick scales. Note that it is best to have a little stem disk on each scale. After it dries in the shade, you can directly insert it into the soil prepared in advance. The insertion depth should be 2/3 of the plant. Water it to keep the soil moist.

Lily seed propagation

First, select strong and well-developed seeds, plant the seeds in the soil, then spread a layer of soil about 1 cm thick on the seeds, and adjust the temperature to 12 to 15 degrees Celsius. This temperature range is conducive to seed germination, and the seedlings that grow will be relatively strong.

Lily breeding precautions

When propagating lilies, you need to pay attention to the fact that the flowerpot should be larger and deeper. The propagation substrate can be a mixture of garden soil, sandy soil, and leaf mold, and base fertilizer can be added to make nutrient soil. After propagation, pay attention to keeping the potting soil moist, and ensure sufficient light and ventilation.
