I. PLANT CHARACTERISTICS
Lily is a herbaceous plant with bulbous roots, beautiful flowers, and a rich fragrance. The blooming season runs from April to October each year. It is a flower that symbolizes elegance, nobility, and grace, beloved by many women.
If growing lily at home, it should be placed in the hallway or at the garden entrance — not in the bedroom, as it may affect sleep quality.
II. GROWING AND CARE TECHNIQUES
1. Temperature
Lily prefers warmth and grows in environments with plenty of sunlight, with a certain degree of cold tolerance. The most suitable growing temperature is 15–25°C. When the ambient temperature exceeds 30°C, it is unfavorable for the plant's growth and flowering. When the temperature drops below 10°C, growth will gradually slow.
2. Humidity & Watering
Lily prefers moisture but excessive moisture is also harmful. Use warm water when watering the pot, as this benefits the development of the stems and leaves. Water thoroughly and evenly each time, being careful not to allow waterlogging which can cause the bulb to rot. Adjust the amount of water according to the plant's growth level. During the blooming period, supply sufficient water; after flowering, gradually reduce; during dormancy in winter, stop watering completely.
3. Fertilizing
During the sprouting period, a little wood mulch can be added to the soil. During the growth period, a small amount of specialized compound fertilizer or potassium fertilizer can be added to the soil. When the plant is flowering, add a little phosphate fertilizer to help the blooms open larger and more beautifully.
