Product Description
Brilliant showy flowers make these an excellent garden choice for borders and pots. Lollipop present two toned, sweet red-pink tipped creamy yellow flower heads suspended on sturdy stems with luscious spiky green foliage. They have the usual scent you would expect from a lily. Asiatic hybrid lilies are the easiest lily to grow, are amongst the first lilies to bloom and are usually pest free. This variety also makes great cut flowers for the vase. Best planted unexposed to strong winds in full or partial sunlight as too much shade will weaken the stems. 14/16cm bulbs supplied.

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.
