#ProPlantTips for Care:
Asiatic Lilies love the sun but do appreciate afternoon shade in the hottest climates. Plant in about any well-drained soil with moderate moisture and fertility. Deadhead after bloom but leave the foliage until frost so they can make food for the bulbs, then prune to the ground when they die back in late autumn.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade Well-Drained Soil
- Moderate Moisture Needs
- Deadhead After Bloom & Prune Back Late Autumn
- Mulch Beds Well!
