When your Easter Lily is finished blooming, don't throw it away! Plant it in your garden and enjoy its blooms for years to come! It's simple ...
- Maintain plant indoors until the danger of frost has passed. Cut off Lily blooms as they expire.
- Find a sunny site with well drained soil. If soil is dense, add amendments.
- Plant at same depth as pot.
- Add 2 inch layer of organic mulch around base of plant. Lilies love sun but still need cool soil.
- Cut off any old flowers and allow stem and leaves to dry naturally.
- Mulch over area when soil surface freezes to insulate plant during winter.
- In spring, remove the mulch as the spring weather warms.
- Fertilize when you see new growth.
- Watch for your new Easter Lily blooms!
