Product omschrijving

Black Asiatic trumpet lily Nightrider is a beautiful garden and cut flower. Lilies come into their own in groups between perennials and shrubs. The height is 120 cm. After flowering they can remain in the ground and will come into full bloom year after year.The lilies are also very suitable for flower pots or planters. The planting depth of a lily is between 10 and 15 cm. Before planting the flower bulbs, make sure the soil is airy and permeable to moisture. Plant lilies sheltered from the wind along a fence or between other plants, shrubs and trees. The flowers like to be in the sun. Lily bulbs can be planted in spring, around April-May, and in autumn, around October-November. In case of frost, it is best to protect the bulbs and any shoots that have already emerged with some leaves or branches. It is recommended to replant the lilies every 3 to 4 years. They then get new energy from the new soil and the lilies bloom beautifully and colorfully for years to come. Watch out for the orange lily beetle: this is the lilys worst enemy! The bugs can best be controlled by removing them manually. There are several pesticides, but lily beetles quickly become immune to them.
