Thompson and Morgan Tree Lily Honeymoon Planting Bulb 3 Pack

Tall and impressive Tree Lily ‘Honeymoon’ is ideal if you’re looking for something stately and impressive for the back of the border or to wow your guests as they walk into the garden. This variety is a cross between a trumpet and oriental Lily, boasting large blooms with a powerful heady fragrance. Blooming at head height or higher, the fragrance can be enjoyed every time you walk past. These hardy perennial bulbs return every year, after the second or third year they can reach up to 2.5m tall and produce up to 30 blooms per plant at maturity. Enjoy the blooms in the garden or snip a few to make an easy but impressive fragrant posy for your home. Over the years the bulbs produce multiple strong and sturdy stems which gives the plant a bushy, shrub-like appearance. Oriental lilies prefer a moist, free draining, neutral to acid soil that is rich in organic matter. Prior to planting, add plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil to give your lilies the best start. When growing lilies in containers, use a loam based compost such as John Innes No.2. Lily bulbs should be planted at a depth of approximately 3 times their own height and 15cm (6") apart. Planting deeply helps to protect the bulb during particularly hot periods. Choose a sheltered, sunny position where lilies will grow with their heads in the sun and their roots in the shade. Position: Full Sun/Partial Shade Height: Up to 2.5m when fully established Spread: Up to 60cm when fully established Supplied as 3 x Tree Lily ‘Honeymoon’ bulbs Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
