A favorite of florists, home gardeners, and landscape designers alike, Oriental Lilies make exceptional summer bouquets and arrangements and fill the garden with unparalleled beauty. Plus, because they bloom a bit later in the growing season than many of their contemporaries, oriental lily plants fill the spaces left behind by earlier perennials. Prized for their cold-hardiness, oriental lily bulbs naturalize readily and come back year after year, bringing even more blooms to the site than before!

Oriental Lily Care and Growing Tips

Growing and maintaining oriental lily plants is fairly easy, given you have a well-prepared site for bulbs and soil with good drainage. For mid to late summer blooms, plant your oriental lily bulbs in soil roughly 6 inches deep and 10 to 12 inches apart. Oriental lily flowers look best when they are planted in clusters of 3 or more bulbs and flourish in full to partial sun and are hardy in zones 3-8.
