Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your Tiger Lily Bulbs is straightforward, ensuring a spectacular display of blooms. These resilient plants prefer a location that receives full sun to partial shade. Full sun for at least 6 hours a day will encourage the most prolific flowering, but they can tolerate some afternoon shade, especially in hotter climates. Ensure the soil is well-draining, as soggy conditions can lead to bulb rot. A rich, loamy soil amended with organic matter is ideal. Before planting, loosen the soil to a depth of about 12 inches to allow for good root development.

When watering, aim for consistently moist but not waterlogged soil, particularly during dry spells and the blooming period. Once established, these Perennial Flower Bulbs are relatively drought-tolerant but will perform best with regular moisture. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer or a bulb-specific formula to support robust growth and abundant flowering. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage the plant to put energy into bulb development rather than seed production. In colder zones, a layer of mulch can help protect the bulbs over winter. These Easy Grow Bulbs are generally pest-resistant but keep an eye out for aphids or lily beetles and treat as needed.

The Orange Lily Flowers typically bloom from mid to late summer, providing a burst of color when many other spring flowers have faded. While they can grow 3-4 feet tall, staking may be beneficial in windy areas or for exceptionally tall specimens to prevent them from toppling. Divide clumps every 3-5 years in the fall or early spring to maintain vigor and spread your beautiful lilies. Proper care will ensure your Tiger Lily Bulbs thrive and return with stunning displays year after year.
