LILIES DOUBLE TIGER
Lilies are one of the truly great garden plants, as they are beloved by gardeners everywhere. Their beauty, diversity, extended season of bloom, graceful stature and overall reliable disposition reflect the fruits of hundreds of years of selective breeding. In Chinese, the word ‘Lily’ means ‘forever in love’. The lilium family is so large, varied, and complex that it is challenging to describe them in short. Lilies are deer and critter resistant. Plant just about anywhere - borders, beds, cutting gardens, perennial gardens, pots and containers.

About This Variety:
The true name of this variety is Flore Pleno. It most closely resembles a double tiger lily.
This mid-summer bloomer produces double blooms and is a heirloom variety, making it an excellent choice for lily collectors and lovers.
Growing Instructions:
Plant in well-drained soil where they will receive 6-8 hours of sun a day.
They are winter hardy and considered a strong perennial that can be left in the ground and will re-bloom year after year if the conditions are right. Lilies perform best when well mulched.
Care Tip:
Lilies prefer cool soil, which argues for shade at their feet from low growing companions. When cutting the flowers for bouquets, remove no more than 1/3 of the stem so sufficient leaves remain to renew the bulb for the coming year.
