Hi, I see this doesn’t actually kill the lily beetles but what about the eggs and grubs? Does it kill these? Thanks, Ian

Hi Ian

The Lily Beetle Concentrate Spray makes the lily foliage taste bitter and therefore deters the beetles and larvae from eating it.

You have to keep spraying the lilies for the spray to be effective especially after rainfall. Wipe off any grubs and dispose of them if you see them.

I have received my order for giant lily bulbs – gosh what a size !
I have some pots with a 13 inch diameter, how many bulbs would you suggest for this size of container?
Regards,
John Wood

I would advise planting 3 large lily bulbs in a 13″ pot.

Hello, I have bought the following lilies from you. Lily Sunny Martinique and Roselily Anouska. when I looked at buying John Innes Number 3 it stated it was for mature plants. Is this the correct compost for the above lilies?

Best wishes, Justine.

Hi Justine
Yes John Innes No 3 is recommended for most lilies. If it appears too dense add some horticultural grit and peat-free multi-purpose compost or leaf mould to improve drainage.

Hi,
My recent issue of Garden News mentions your company.
I have not grown lilies before.
Can I use this bulb compost that I bought for spring bulbs.
Dalefoot Peat Free Organic Bulb Compost.
On the bag it specifies Daffodils, Hyacinths and Lilies.
Organic seems a bit over the top for bulbs!
I would like to get Stargazers as I am taking a course that calls to paint them so I can plan for the summer.

Yes that sounds perfect for Stargazer lilies. You can always add some grit to encourage drainage so the bulbs do not get waterlogged. Lily ‘Stargazer’ (harts1003)

I would love to see your paintings – please share them with us if you get a chance. We are on Instagram, if you’re on there (@hartsnursery).
