Thanks to the individuals (Clothilde for order preparation & quality control and Viviane from the shipping department), the 3 bulbs received are small but seem healthy to me. Planted, I am waiting for spring... (will they grow or not?).

Planting and care

Lilies like to be in full sun with their base in the shade. Plant the bulbs 10 cm (4in) deep in fertile, well-drained soil, enriched with compost. Keep the soil moist but not wet. These lilies prefer acidic soil and enjoy the winter cold which allows them to root. Be careful of spring frosts that can damage young shoots. Our Tip: Lilies are perfect for growing in pots. Plant 1 to 5 bulbs in a deep pot. Water a little and place your pots in a frost-free area. Bring them out near the house in spring to enjoy them to the full.
