Exotic, fully double, blooms tower up to 6ft in their first year, and more in subsequent years. The soft pastel pink flowers of Tree Lily® ‘Monet’ are completely pollen free, yielding just as much colour and fragrance as the single flowered varieties, without the fear of staining your clothes and skin. Perfect for creating exquisite screens throughout the garden. The tall stems are superb for cutting too! Height: 250cm (98″). Spread: 60cm (24″).
Oriental lilies prefer a moist, free draining, neutral to acid soil that is rich in organic matter. Prior to planting, add plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil to give your tree lilies the best start. When growing lilies in containers, use a loam based compost such as John Innes No.2. Lily bulbs should be planted at a depth of approximately 3 times their own height and 15cm (6″) apart. Planting deeply helps to protect the bulb during particularly hot periods. Choose a sheltered, sunny position where lilies will grow with their heads in the sun and their roots in the shade.
