This is an amazing and tall asiatic lily. It is very reliable and will produce more flowers year on year. It likes any well-drained soil in a sunny spot. To encourage flowers and bulbs to grow and split I feed with a general purpose soluble fertilizer in spring.
I remove seed pods straight after each flower dies, so the plant's energy is not wasted on making ripe seeds.
To propagate simply lift, split and replant large bulbs in late autumn/ winter. When you lift a lily you can tell whether its ready to split because it looks like two or more bulbs.
