Product Description
Our colourful mixture of dwarf Asiatic Lilies grow to a compact height of just 35-50cm tall, unlike most lilies which grow over 120cm and tend to need support. Masses of flowers bloom from June-August upon dark, lush green foliage. The lilies are short but perfectly formed: they are sturdy, self-supporting and ideal for pots, tubs or the front of a border. This mixture will create a delightful blend of colours in your garden for a fantastic summer display. 14/16cm bulbs supplied.
We guarantee our great value mixture packs contain a comprehensive blend of variety and colours. By definition the components of the mixtures are not labelled/named on arrival.

Growing at a glance…
Lily bulbs will greatly appreciate the shelter of low growing shrubs or other plants near their roots. In active growth, apply water freely a high potash liquid fertilizer every two weeks or so. When planting, each bulb should surrounded with a little sharp sand both under and above the bulb to keep slugs away and to ward off excessive wetness. As most lilies are stem rooting, we strongly recommend you plant about 15cm deep. They give a much better display when planted in clumps of 3, 6 or 12 bulbs, spaced 45cm apart. Plant from December to April to see them appear in summer.
