Planting & Care

Plant Red Country Oriental Lily bulbs in spring or fall, setting them 6-8 inches deep and 12-18 inches apart in well-drained soil. Choose a location with full sun to partial shade; in hot climates, some afternoon shade is beneficial. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season, but avoid overwatering to prevent bulb rot.

Apply a layer of mulch to keep roots cool and conserve moisture. Fertilize in early spring as new growth emerges. After blooming, allow the foliage to die back naturally to nourish the bulb for next year's flowers. These lilies are relatively low-maintenance and deer-resistant, making them a reliable choice for perennial gardens.
