How to grow fresh lilies
Lilies are deeply loved by people for their elegant temperament and fragrant fragrance, but many florists often encounter problems with poor flowering or withered plants during the maintenance process. This article will combine the popular flower cultivation topics on the Internet in the past 10 days to provide you with a detailed analysis of the maintenance skills of fresh lilies, helping you to easily grow slim lilies.
1. Basic care points for lilies

| Maintenance elements | Specific requirements | Things to note |
|---|---|---|
| Lighting requirements | 4-6 hours of scattered light per day | Shade is required in summer to avoid exposure to the sun |
| suitable temperature | 15-25℃ | Not lower than 5℃ in winter |
| Watering frequency | 3-5 days/time in spring and autumn, 1-2 days/time in summer | Keep the soil slightly moist without water accumulation |
| soil selection | Loose and breathable humus soil | pH value 6.0-7.0 is optimal |
2. Answers to the most popular flower growing questions on the Internet
Based on the recent discussion among flower friends, we have compiled three frequently asked questions:
| question | solution | Data support |
|---|---|---|
| Flower buds wither before they bloom | Supplement phosphorus and potassium fertilizer (potassium dihydrogen phosphate once a week) | 89% of cases are caused by nutritional deficiencies |
| Leaves turn yellow and fall off | Check whether the root system is rotten and control the amount of watering | The suitable humidity should be 60-70% |
| Plants are short and do not bloom | Increase the lighting time and require low-temperature vernalization in winter | Vernalization temperature 5-10℃ for 4 weeks |
3. Advanced maintenance skills
1.Flowering period management:Keep the environment ventilated during flowering to avoid high temperature and high humidity, which may cause flower buds to fall off. After the first flower blooms, it can be moved to a cool place to extend the flowering period for 2-3 days.
2.Fertilization plan:
| growth stage | Fertilizer type | Frequency of use |
|---|---|---|
| growth period | Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium balanced fertilizer | Once every 10 days |
| Pregnancy period | High phosphorus and potassium fertilizer | 1 time a week |
| Recovery after flowering | organic liquid fertilizer | Once every half month |
3.Pest and disease control:Lily leaf blight, which has been hotly discussed on the Internet recently, can be prevented by regular spraying of carbendazim (once a month). When spider mites are found, wipe the back of the leaves with alcohol cotton pads immediately.
4. Bulk preservation and propagation
Post-flowering treatment is a point of confusion for many florists:
| Operation steps | Time node | Technical points |
|---|---|---|
| Cut off spent flowers | After the flowers wither | Keep 2/3 of the stems |
| pilling save | After the above-ground parts turn yellow | Disinfect, dry and store in sand |
| Propagation by dividing balls | The following spring | Keep 3-4 scales per ball |
5. Differences in maintenance of different varieties
According to recent popular discussions on flower forums, the maintenance differences between Asiatic lilies, oriental lilies and iron cannon lilies are as follows:
| Variety type | Lighting requirements | cold resistance | flowering characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| asiatic lily | full sun | -30℃ | Flowers in many colors |
| oriental lily | Half shade | -15℃ | Flowers are fragrant |
| Iron Cannon Lily | scattered light | -10℃ | trumpet shaped flower |
Conclusion:Maintaining lilies requires patient observation and scientific management. The "lily re-flowering techniques" that have been hotly discussed on the Internet recently show that good dormancy period management can enable the bulbs to accumulate more nutrients. Remember to replenish nutrients after they bloom, and you can enjoy beautiful lilies year after year!
