I love lillies ! I've never tried to grow them before. After I got them home and repotted them in a larger pot, I thought it would be a good idea to read up on "How to Grow Lillies." Man, I tell you, if I had known then , what I know now, I would have left these Beauties on the shelf. Starting off, they are a one time bloomer. No more to bloom for the season (if I read that right); they need to be pulled up and placed in the house for the winter So they dont freeze. But if you live in an area that doesn't freeze, you can leave them in the ground. . But they will only bloom for 2 blooming cycles, or for 2 years. Yes.. I love the look of the diversity of colors and species. But too much remembering and caring..,
