This question was asked by

I am looking to buy some Liliums and I see in your online catalogue
has some bulbs down as sold out. Is this last years or has the crop failed. When do you intend to lift your bulbs or do await an order?

Hi William

We are currently updating our stock list when we know which crops will be available for February. They should all be online in the next couple of weeks so please check back then. You can pre-order your lilies now for February 2021 delivery.

Can you please tell me the best time to plant these Dwarf Lily bulbs?

Good morning
All lilies bulbs need planting in the spring ideally so they flower in the summer.

I had some from you a while ago and when flower is grown and buds formed they go brown and drop off do you know what could be done as I leave them in the ground I’ve had lots of lovely flowers for last couple of yrs but last Yr and this they are not good can you help me thanks.

Hi Keith

It could be a number of factors affecting your lilies, from the extreme weather conditions we have experienced, to the soil they are in. I would lift your bulbs after everything has died back. Divide them if they have any baby bulblets attached, replant them and give them some fresh compost. A slow release fertiliser will strengthen your lilies also.

When is the best time to repot lilies out of pots thank you derek

Hi Derek

Wait until all your lilies have completely died back, this should be around the end of Autumn. You can then lift, divide and repot your lilies as needed.

just to say how happy i was with your lilies this year; the Trebbiano were beetle resistant even though surrounded by other lilies that suffered. i shall buy more of these next spring; or do you recommend i buy them now? Does your spray kill the beetles or just repel them?

Hi there,
The Spray will repel the the lily beetles – it needs spraying quite regularly after watering or rainfall. You can pre-order your lilies now just to incase we sell out of them.

When is the optimum time to order lily bilbs? I always seem to look when many are out of stock. Am I looking too early in the year or too late?
Thank you.
Carol-Ann.

Hi Carol

We are currently adding more stock when we know what crops will be available to us for February next year. I would say in the next couple of weeks we should be more up-to-date with our lilies.
