Lily 'Qwic' Oriental Lilies Qwic Qwic Lily Qwic Lily Qwic Lily

Oriental Lily ‘Qwic’ is a vibrant and elegant garden star, known for its striking red petals edged with crisp white, creating a bold, eye-catching contrast that instantly draws attention. Each trumpet-shaped bloom is large, silky, and gracefully ruffled, giving it a luxurious, almost sculptural quality that adds drama and sophistication wherever it’s grown.

Strong, upright stems hold the flowers above glossy green foliage, ensuring they make a statement in borders, containers, or as part of a cutting display. Beyond its visual appeal, ‘Qwic’ delights the senses with a rich, sweet fragrance that fills the garden with a touch of glamour and indulgence.

Oriental Lily ‘Qwic’ is perfect for gardeners who want bold colour, elegance, and scent all in one — a true showstopper that brings life and style to any summer planting.

Care Instructions

How to care for Oriental Lilies

  • Lilies can tolerate very cold conditions but they do not like to get wet.
  • If planting in borders in the garden, the soil must be well drained and, preferably, humus rich.
  • If planting in pots, make sure lilies are kept moist but do not get waterlogged.
  • Lilies prefer to be planted in a location with at least half a day’s full sunshine, if it’s a bit too shady they will lean their stems towards the sun.
  • Lily bulbs do not like to be dried out so they must be kept in soil at all times.
  • Try to plant your lilies where they will dry out after rain to prevent Botrytis, a fungus that spots the leaves. If you do see brown spots on your leaves, spray with a fungicide recommended for roses.
  • If planting in pots, it may be an idea to tilt the pots on their side in the winter to prevent waterlog.
  • When the Lily has finished flowering, cut any seed heads back and allow the foliage to die back naturally. Do not be tempted to cut the stem back until stems becomes hollow and brown.
  • Lilies like a cold dormant phase throughout the winter so they don't need lifting. However, do ensure they have adequate drainage and do not get waterlogged as this will cause the bulbs to rot. 
  • After a few years of flowering, you may find your Oriental Lily produces less blooms, it may be time to lift your bulbs and divide them by breaking off the bulblets. All the bulbs will then need replanting.
  • To prevent Lily Beetles from damaging your lilies, we recommend using the Lily Beetle Prevention Spray or you can make up your own with the Concentrate. This Spray (Grazers G4) will also stimulate growth of your lilies.
  • You can feed your lilies with a Tomato Feed to stimulate and strengthen your lilies when you start to see signs of growth. Make up your tomato feed with half the recommended dilution (written on the instructions on the bottle) and feed once every 3 weeks.
