Cardiocrinum Giganteum, the giant Himalayan lily, is the largest species of any of the lily plants, growing up to 3.5 metres high. It is found in the Himalayas, China and Myanmar. Cardiocrinum are large bulbous perennials with trumpet-shaped flowers that look like lilies. They produce high flowering spikes of cream-white flowers with maroon markings inside each flower throat. Provides a gorgeous vanilla scent. Cardiocrinums will typically flower during the months of June and August where they will give an abundant display of over 20 (sometimes up to 40) flowers per stem!
Cardiocrinum Giganteum are known as monocarpic, this means they die after flowering. But don't worry, these beauties still have more give as more bulbs are formed around the base of the old stem and seedlings can appear nearby too. These can take some time to get established but it will be worth the wait!
- Cardiocrinum giganteum like most soil types.
- They prefer the soil to be moist but well drained.
- Soil can be Acid, Alkaline or Neutral preferably humus-rich.
- Woodland settings are ideal.
- These lilies like a shady position where the direct sunlight will not burn their leaves.
- We would also advise planting these bulbs around larger trees and shrubs to protect them from strong winds.
- Group bulbs towards the back of flower beds due to their height.
- Plant the bulbs with the tip just at the surface so you can see the bulb.
