Like all Asian lilies, this variety is hardy. They look great as cut flowers, and it is easy to grow. However, it is better to use good-quality potting mixes when you grow them in pots. Add a slow-release fertilizer when planting to get abundant flowering, or feed the plant with a liquid fertilizer every two weeks during flowering. Lilies love nutrients and moderate moisture during growth. So remember that pots have limited resources. In a container with a diameter of 15 cm and a height of 25 cm, you can plant 1-3 bulbs of the same lily variety and different ones. When growing, distribute the bulbs, so they do not touch each other and the walls of the container.

In the garden, plant your bulbs, fertilize in time and enjoy the blooms. The soil needs to be well-drained, light, and sandy, with a slightly alkaline or neutral reaction. Location: full sun or spotty shade. Aspect: South side, West side. Plants are generally placed at a depth about twice the bulb's height. This is 15-20 cm for large bulbs and 10-15 cm for smaller bulbs. The approximate distance between lilies when planting should be within 30 cm
