Classic Lily Tree® Collection
Our Dutch Bulb Experts Adore These Giant Lilies!
These towering beauties quickly became a favourite with all of our staff here in Noordwijkerhout, Holland. Once we saw how well these amazing lily hybrids performed in our test gardens, we couldn't resist planting some around our building. Visitors to the office regularly compliment the Lily Trees, and we're sure your guests will be equally entranced!
Carefree and Easy to Grow
Lily Trees naturalize equally well in sandy and clay soils, and require no special care to multiply and spread yearly. The stems are so strong, the plant needs no added support. After the lily is done flowering, it will benefit from a feeding with Breck's Food for Bulbs and perennials to stimulate growth.
The Tallest Lilies Ever Grown!
Lily Trees are attention-getting hybrids that produce enormous flowers on thick stems that grow taller than most people! Our Dutch bulb experts in Holland have chosen their favourite varieties for these very special collections being offered. You won't believe your eyes, or your nose, when your garden is filled with their massive, colourful and often fragrant blooms. The fast-growing plants reliably reach 3-4' tall in the first year, 5-6' in height during year two and an astonishing 6-8' tall in the third year! Carefree and easy to grow, Lily Trees are ideal for planting in the back of borders or in the corner of beds—locations where their tremendous height can be fully appreciated. These excellent visual anchors will help define your landscape!

Lilies Tips & Growing Instructions
Versatile Asiatic Lilies are great for beds and borders, planted among shrubs, along walls, or in containers. They are incredibly easy to grow and few garden pests trouble them. For best results, plant your lilies where they will have good drainage and mix some leaf mold or compost into the soil. Lilies prefer to have their blooms in the sun and their roots in the shade. Try planting them among annuals or perennials that will keep their roots cool. Always allow the leaves on the stalk to turn yellow and fall off as part of the lily's natural growth process. This ensures that the bulbous underground part of the plant has gotten enough nourishment and will mean greater growth next year. Each year watch their beauty increase as they multiply!
There are literally thousands of lily varieties and hybrids on the market today. Some of our most popular varieties include Tiger Lilies, Oriental Lilies, and Trumpet Lilies.
