Wow great video you answered every single question I had about them. Like what to do with the bulbs if you don't plan to grow them yet, the spacing, how to handle if they grow too high, advice for bugs, and last how to cut and multiply them. My girlfriend love these flowers and I want to grow them for her thanks a lot.

Your video it's very helpful. I just plant my and I want to know what do I need to buy to feed it?? What do you used?

btw i should of mentioned i am here in the uk thank you x

hi my lilies always grow to about 3 inches in height and then completely stop. this has gone on for three years but the first year was bountiful full grown blooms. what am i doing wrong? please help. ive researched and researched but cannot figure out why.

Hi, this shouldn't be a problem. Plant your bulbs the right way up, with the basal plate/roots facing down, and the shoots should correct themselves. It's best to do this as soon as possible! We hope this helps.

I got some lilies but they started to grow in the packets. Now they are on their sides or upside down. Is this a big problem?

Hi Jayson, we do have an article about growing lilies on our website. We've added a link to it in the video description above. Hope that helps!

Thank you! Do you have a main site on how to plant and propagate lilies? I really wanted to have a lily garden but my knowledge is not enough to build one. Google can't help me with this one. Thank you very much!

Hi Jayson, at 2:09 we are simply removing the anthers as the pollen can stain your skin and clothes if you brush against it. The pollen is also toxic to cats if they ingest it. However, many gardeners leave the anthers on the plant as they prefer how the lilies look this way. Either way is fine. We hope this helps.

What did you do in 2:09 . I really don't get it. Can I plant them?

Hi there! Do you know where to get lilies seeds from its previous flower? Thank you!
