I’m waiting to plant my lilies. How long can I wait?
If you can not plant the day you receive your order. Take the plants out of the packaging and place them in water. They will survive up to 1 week like this. If this is not an option, then keep them in the refrigerator. They can survive only 1 to 2 days at the most like this before they start to rot.
How often do I need to fertilize?
You must be fertilizing every 6 to 8 weeks until they go dormant. Place a fertilizer tab next to the root, and push in the length of your index finger.
How do I plant my lilies?
Choose your size container
Fill with soil (dirt/clay mixture) - not potting soil.
Pack the dirt tightly
Dig a hole right in the center of the container. Dig deep enough to pass the root system up by about a 1/4 inch.
Place the plant inside the hole and pack the dirt tightly.
Lastly, place it in your pond or container full of water.
