i have only just become fascinated by lilies, not just Orientals, Tree and also the Calla and not just the species ,but all the colours as well, now I only need to buy one, the following year I might be able to try your method, thank you from the UK
Thank you..I'm interested. Just bought myself and my daughter-in- law a potted Stargazer Lilies and we both loved them! Thanks for sharing your "know how" and experience! God bless you!
Just found a seed pod on my lilly. Now ive got them started. Thank you so much for the info. I'm so excited. Long process. I'm in it to the final bloom
I ran across this vid searching for seed pod info. I'm new to lilies and found a brown bean looking 5hing on top of what looked like a new flower set and was wondering what it was lol
I admired your passion and patience to take care of these beautiful plants. I love plants and nature and they helped me going through my stress. My family would always gifted me plants and flowers. In winter We kept my plants in the house but some like cloe, African violets n other perennials didn’t survived, very delicate. I got 7 different lilies collections and they are so beautiful. They stayed outside they’re toughed. Thankyou for your nice video
I love lilies such as casablanca and stargazer, but I live in tropical country. I bought one and blooms few months ago and I would love to have it more. I was searching this trick and thanks for your video. I hope I could see them blooming again in my garden ❤️
A big Thankyou for making this video. I have few lilly plants which are the last ones of their batch n want to propogate them before i loose them completely. This video is very clear on how to propagate bulbs. I will now try it. will be doing it for the first time so fingers crossed. please keep making more videos as they help. 👍
This video came in handy for me. I just bought a bag of lily bulbs and there were scales with tiny little bulbs forming. Thanks to this video I know what to do with them.
I just bought lillies in a supermarket here, in Berlin, and wanted to know how to get more of them since it's usually not so easy to find them to buy. I have a lot of plants on my balcony, but I always wanted to have a row of lillies since they are my fav flower, and my boyfriend buys them for me ever couple of weeks but I always felt sad gettung them already cut. Imma do this and hopefully enjoy them every year while drunking cocktail on my balcony. Thanks a lot
This is a great “tutorial”! Thanks for sharing the info. I just discovered your channel, and I am bouncing around and catching up on various videos. Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoyed this video.last year my lily order came to late to plant , so I put them in pots in my cold basement put them out on the porch this Spring. The potting soil retained too much moisture from rain , so I dumped them out to plant in the garden. One was starting to rot and the scales were falling off, so I put them in sand in a small flat. I’m hoping they get bulbils. It’s 49 degrees this morning,and they are outside in sun, rain and whatever weather. I’m wondering if I should put them on the heat mat for awhile then back outside. I don’t know if they’re going to grow anyway.

Ok got a question. Last year I bought some lily bulbs from tractor supply and planted them in a pot. They sprouted (4 of them) and my dog decided to pull them up and chew them, lol I did re-plant them and they did sprout and grow flowers (only a few). This year they came back AMAZING I have 9 stalks now with 14 buds! I got my first bloom open this morning! Question is...why do they not smell this year? Last year they smelled great. Should I have added something to the soil?
It is very helpful. I will try it out this year. What do you do with the old lily bulbs that got removed scales? Do you put them back into ground or store in fridge?
Fascinating video. Can I ask what are the best companion plants to grow with a Lily. I've built a new 1m square planter and ordered a pack of 9 Royal Lily bulbs and would like to know what plants I could also grow in there that would compliment and even benefit the Lily. Thanks.
I think for Asiatic lilies the process could be little faster after you put'em in a pot especially in warmer areas like NE Florida, whats your thoughts ?
@@lelia818 hi, california poppies are best sowed in cool temps (fall to winter) in full sun, outdoors (unless you have hard frosts in winter; they can handle light frost). i just learned this year that heat above 80 will do a number on the seedlings! btw, i'm from cali
Well , i'm electronic engineer with 0 knowledge about flower, but start to plant some of them couple of years , i develop a love about flowers. Can you tell me please the optimal temperature in 'fridge' and humidity. I want to build a chamber and i collect all data i can get. Thanks and you got a sub
Yes they can, it's going to be a while before they get too crowded. I have amaryllis in large pots, theyre really full pots and they bloom like crazy.( Old horse manure 2 year old,at least, looks like black dirt)works like a charm to feed them. Make some compost manure tea and side dress the plants with the dry compost. Here in south Louisiana, my stargazers and amaryllis never dies, stays outside and green through the winter, they're in bloom now, April 21 and the stargazers are deep green and will be blooming soon.
I don't have Oriental lily but I do have one lily that I bought it from a botanical once a year where all the nurseries meet up. Anyways, it has 4 bulbs now but I don't know how to break it apart without damaging it. I don't know it is clump together or what ? Can I split it or should I leave it alone. I lost the name tag and all I know it is Australian hybrid . Absolutely beautiful and loves heat. Thank you so.much ! 🌻🏵️🌺🌸
Hi thanks for this video. I have a few oriental lilies the stargazer and once I start seeing the leaves I check em everyday or two for those little red lily leaf beetles I'm really good at catching em my question is what can I do to prevent these beetles from finding my lilies? Two summers back I found them along with thier babies eating the plants so since then I keep on top of plants as they smell soooo good and how do I propagate for seeds? Thanks for any advice it's super appreciated. Eddie J. Long Island N.Y
When can I take out the bulb? Wait until all the bloom done? Or i should wait for a couple week/month for the leave photosinthesis until all leave fell?
Hi last year i planted about ten huge asiatic lillies and got wonderful flowers. After the blooming period was over i fed the plants with some liquid fertilizers but in the fall when i decided to remove the bulbs and replant them to my amazement there were no bulbs just some roots. Could you please tell me what happened?
Hi all my Asiatic lilies are planted through out my garden, can I dig them out now or wait until fall, I live in Chicago zone 5B it's still very hot??? Thanks ❤️
hey i bought 2 store bought oriental lilies bulb, planted them separately one of them grew nice big stem. other one had quite a big growing eye but it was a little bent after couple weeks it didn't grew any bigger than what i bought. do you think i could do anything to the bulb to make grow again this year or next year maybe? or is it useless to save it now? Need help : )
Anywhere that's cold, but doesn't freeze should work well - so maybe stored away in an unheated garage or something? I've never tried it, but I'm sure there's another option. Good luck!
I am starting this year flowers gardening and I hope to sell few. I am from France. Is it a half time job ? How many hours could you work on your flowers garden in high season? Thank you so much for your videos!
My flower garden is only a hobby at the moment. I actually dont sell them, rather donate the bouquets locally. I usually work in the garden about an hour each day. 🌱🌱🌱
Can you just plant the lily scales in the garden? I did this on fall when I divided my orientalist lilies and accidentally pulled a few scales off the established bulbs? I live in 7a and we have had a cold winter so they’ve definitely had the right weather for stratification.
Shoot, I had to dig tiger lily bulbs up in July and some of the scales came off so i just potted mine in pots (they did get light) just temporarily before I put them in their final resting places. Now suddenly they have sprouts coming out in fall (I know it's out of season) and I'm worried with winter coming, it'll kill these bulbs completely. What do I do?!
Most lilies overwinter here in my yard without any problems. I believe that most of them require a certain number of chill hours to make sure that they'll bloom the following season. I have had trouble with them rotting before, when the soil is really heavy clay.
The most fragrant lilies of all are the Oriental and Double Oriental lilies. Next are the OT Hybrid lilies - hybrids between Oriental and Trumpet (Christmas) lilies. Roselilies are double Oriental lilies with a beautiful sweet fragrance, but have no pollen at all.
i have only just become fascinated by lilies, not just Orientals, Tree and also the Calla and not just the species ,but all the colours as well, now I only need to buy one, the following year I might be able to try your method, thank you from the UK
Wow, I've been gardening professionally for over 15 years and I did not know this trick! Thank you!
I'm so glad it was helpful. Thanks so much for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
Thank you for this video! I haven't found a propagation video this detailed thus far. I will be trying this! Lilies are my favorite flower
this video is so helpfull mostly if i dont want to spend so much money for bulbs. i know it takes years but is fun to try different things. thank you!
Don't know how I got your video but I love your videos.
Welcome to the channel!
Thank you so much. I've seen other videos of cutting up the entire bulb into sections... but this seems less brutal. I have to try this! Thanks!
No need to cut the bulbs. Each scale will produce 1-2 new bulbs, plus you can save the original one by replanting. 🌱🌱🌱
Thank you..I'm interested. Just bought myself and my daughter-in- law a potted Stargazer Lilies and we both loved them!
Thanks for sharing your "know how" and experience! God bless you!
Thx for video- I’m going to try growing them down here in zone 8
After lavender, stock plant, Easter Lily is the next one I will grow. Thanks for sharing
I appreciate you doing this video, I never know you could propagate Lily this way, I hope some day I will try them, I love lilies!
Thanks so much for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
Thank you so much for this amazing tip.You are the best.God bless you for sharing. 😀
Wow it is amazing .Yhanks for sharing it in public interest.
We super love your vid.. muchas gracias, salamat po... Warm regards from the Manila, Philippines
Wonderful! I had never heard of this!
I will certainly try this!
Just found a seed pod on my lilly. Now ive got them started. Thank you so much for the info. I'm so excited. Long process. I'm in it to the final bloom
I ran across this vid searching for seed pod info. I'm new to lilies and found a brown bean looking 5hing on top of what looked like a new flower set and was wondering what it was lol
I did this to my OT Purple Prince a few years ago and it worked. Defo some valuable info here.
Thank you so much for sharing this propagation
Really appreciate this, very informative, thank you :)
Thank you so much for sharing this! I just dug up some lilies to relocate & found some whopper bulbs. This video is so helpful!
Wow love your video. I’m from Brazil and love Lily
Thank you for posting this! I picked up some pots with a couple in each today at the grocery store. I plan on trying this in a few days!
Thank you! I think this is going to be so fun. I’m a teacher and although I don’t have my students very long, I can show them the steps!
fantastic video and just the information I was needing today. Away to plant up some bulbils now
Thanks for sharing Lily Bulbs😊
Wow I didn’t know you could do that. You are fantastic.

Beautiful and beautiful

I do this all the time. Especially when you buy prepackaged Lily bulbs. There's always loose scales in the bag.
That's a great idea!
This was pretty Cool Girlie!

This was fascinating!
Thanks so much for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
This is so scientific to me 😂 I didn't know you could peel them like onion bulbs!
I live in AZ and I was unaware that they went dormant
Wow cool 😎
Thank you for the information and was helpful to me
Thanks so much for watching! :)
Thanks for the tip! I wonder if this would work for native lilies.
Yes it's a bulb and makes bulbils
Soooo... Dang.... Cool!!!! Thanks so much for this!!
I will put the time in trying to grow new plants from this method or the seed pods, just out of spite to buying the overpriced new plants.
Absolutely! It’s not spite, it’s wisdom!
@@miriammigliacci3527 some spite, especially at $10 a bulb for something to not come up or isn't the right one you ordered lol
Thats so awesome
Thanks so much for watching!
The pink Lillies towards the end of the video (not the stargazers), what are those called?

I always like to plant smaller annuals from seed with my lilies. This way I can add different plants with the lilies every growing season. 🌱🌱🌱

Hi I really love you videos and I have a special request and hope that you could do a video on how to grow californa poppies.
I didn't have any California poppies this year, but I will be planting some this fall. 🌱🌱🌱
Yes! I struggle so much with poppies, I've heard it helps to mix the seeds with sand and sow the mix? Figured it would be worth a shot haha
@@lelia818 hi, california poppies are best sowed in cool temps (fall to winter) in full sun, outdoors (unless you have hard frosts in winter; they can handle light frost). i just learned this year that heat above 80 will do a number on the seedlings! btw, i'm from cali

Wow🤩 Thanks
Do you have video showing how pink asiatic lilies look like? Do they produce stem bulbils?
Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks so much for watching! :)
thanks for the videos.it's amazing.
Wow. Awesome!!!! I can safe so much money that way. Thanks for the tip. Do you recommend cutting hyacinth bulb if I want to multiply them? Thanks.

Can you tell me please the optimal temperature in 'fridge' and humidity. I want to build a chamber and i collect all data i can get. Thanks and you got a sub
40-32 degrees Fahrenheit and about 30%rh
My double lily stalks both fell and broke. Should I wait until later later in the season to take them out of the ground?
Hi, could the new lily bulblets just be left in the pot until they are bigger, instead of planting them in the garden? Thanks! Love your videos!!!
They probably could. I would just worry that they might start to get really crowded after a couple seasons. 🌱🌱🌱
Yes they can, it's going to be a while before they get too crowded. I have amaryllis in large pots, theyre really full pots and they bloom like crazy.( Old horse manure 2 year old,at least, looks like black dirt)works like a charm to feed them.

When do the lilies go dormant in New Hampshire zone 5
At 7:17 what is that thing that popped out? Was that a big bulb or a rock?
Hello. What happens if i removed the bulbs before the foilage died and quickly planted the quarter sized bulbs? The weather is still warm
I don't have Oriental lily but I do have one lily that I bought it from a botanical once a year where all the nurseries meet up.
Anyways, it has 4 bulbs now but I don't know how to break it apart without damaging it. I don't know it is clump together or what ?
Can I split it or should I leave it alone.

Thank you so.much ! 🌻🏵️🌺🌸
If the bulbs have grown into clumps, dividing them would probably be better than scaling. I usually do that every 4-6 years. 🌱🌱🌱
I have a question, the rabbit or squirl cut the lilly tops in my garden. Will it grow new shoots or will the bulb rot?
Take it up and put in a pot or just leave it, it may not do much until next year.

How do you do that with the seasons? If you dig up and scale in the summer after they bloom by the time you do everything itll only be fall.
When can I take out the bulb? Wait until all the bloom done? Or i should wait for a couple week/month for the leave photosinthesis until all leave fell?
Leave them till they die right back. They ate feeding the next years flowers
My favorite

Hi all my Asiatic lilies are planted through out my garden, can I dig them out now or wait until fall,
I live in Chicago zone 5B it's still very hot???
Thanks ❤️
Ideally, the plant should die back naturally first. This is required because the bulb continues to store energy for the next growing season.
@@TONYAwiththeflowers
Thank you, I will wait until fall 😄
hey i bought 2 store bought oriental lilies bulb, planted them separately one of them grew nice big stem. other one had quite a big growing eye but it was a little bent after couple weeks it didn't grew any bigger than what i bought. do you think i could do anything to the bulb to make grow again this year or next year maybe? or is it useless to save it now?

I'm new to plant lillies, I plant the whole sprout 8" deep in the soil. Will it grow or what I did was wrong ?
Thank you!
way to deep
It's not a potato, come up at least halfway.
Do you have a problem with deer in your area ? And if so what do you do to deter them
Hi, may I ask if there's any workaround if we don't have a refrigerator to put the scales to? Thank you
Anywhere that's cold, but doesn't freeze should work well - so maybe stored away in an unheated garage or something? I've never tried it, but I'm sure there's another option. Good luck!
@@TONYAwiththeflowers thank you. Oh one more. If it finished blooming, can I just leave the plant on the pot? Will the bulb still multiply/grow? 😁

Could I use this method for Stargazers
Yes, definitely. 🌱🌱🌱
Can lily stand the weather and grow well in equatorial places ?
Can I do this with Easter Lilies? Is it the same process?

Yes I want to know where and how she is going to keep them until next year
Hello, did you keep the potted bulblets inside or outside once you planted them in the pot?
After I potted them up, I just moved the container outside in a sunny spot and cared for it as normal. Hope that helps! 🌱🌱
What type of soil do lilies need ?specially in propagation.tnx
I usually just use a potting soil mix for propagating lilies. Thanks for watching!
@@TONYAwiththeflowers , can I plant stargazer lilies in garden soil with a mix of burned rice hull???
do you dig your lilys out every fall? im in zone 6b and want to grow these. i planted some outside but they never came back .
Most lilies overwinter here in my yard without any problems. I believe that most of them require a certain number of chill hours to make sure that they'll bloom the following season. I have had trouble with them rotting before, when the soil is really heavy clay.
Do you protect your lily garden and adult bulbs from rodents and critters? If so, how? Thank you
I don't. I've actually never had any issues with the lily bulbs. So sorry that I don't have any advice. Thanks so much for watching! 🌱🌱
I was wondering if you could give some tips on propagating Lily bulbs?
Sure! What kind of tips would be helpful?
Hi im searching the internet but cant find the difference between Asiatic and oriental lily bulb. Can you tell by the bulbs?
The most fragrant lilies of all are the Oriental and Double Oriental lilies.
Next are the OT Hybrid lilies - hybrids between Oriental and Trumpet (Christmas) lilies.
Roselilies are double Oriental lilies with a beautiful sweet fragrance, but have no pollen at all.
Asiatic no fragrance
