1. When do lilies bloom?

The blooming time of lilies is related to the variety of lilies and the planting time. Generally speaking, lilies bloom in the summer, usually in July, with the peak flowering period being mid-July. Different varieties will result in different flowering times for lilies. For example, musk lilies will bloom from May to June, Yunnan lilies will bloom from June to July, and white lilies will bloom from July to August. It takes about 120 to 150 days for lilies to bloom from planting. The earlier they are planted at suitable temperatures, the earlier they will bloom.

2. What to do if lilies don’t bloom

Supplement phosphorus fertilizer: An appropriate amount of phosphorus can promote the root development of lilies, the opening of flower buds and the development of fruits. If the fertilizer lacks phosphorus, the lily buds will find it difficult to sprout due to lack of nutrients. In this way, flowers will naturally not bloom. Therefore, if the lily has reached its flowering period but has not yet bloomed, you can consider adding compound fertilizer with a high phosphorus and potassium content to promote the germination of flower buds. With flower buds, the chances of lilies blooming will increase.

Supplement sunlight: If lilies are grown in a dark place with insufficient sunlight for a long time, the plants will not be able to carry out effective photosynthesis and will not be able to synthesize the nutrients needed for flower buds to germinate. It is necessary to transfer it to a place with more scattered light for breeding in time. It is afraid of strong light, as long as there is enough scattered light for it to carry out photosynthesis.

Appropriate watering: If you water too much during daily maintenance, it will affect the normal growth of the plant. If the roots have difficulty breathing, nutrient absorption and transportation will not be smooth. In this case, it is possible that the plant will not flower. Therefore, if it is because of excessive watering, it should be placed in a ventilated place with scattered light, loosen the soil more often, speed up the evaporation of excess water in the soil, and restore the soil to dryness. Just pay attention to controlling the amount of watering during subsequent maintenance.
