Description

Set your pots and borders alight this summer, with this colour mix of dwarf and compact Carpet Lilies.

Naturally bred grow only to about 30cm tall, what they lack in height they make up for in sheer flower power - each bulb will give one strong stem with 3-5 flowers each in the first year and increasing year after year beyond that.

They are great planted en-masse in beds and borders where they will smother the bare ground – ideal for filling in gaps and spaces where you really will create a carpet of hot summer colour. Alternatively, they’ll look great planted in a group in a large pot, lighting up patios, terraces or even balconies.

As always, lilies make a fabulous cut flowers – these brightly coloured beauties would make a great addition to a cut flower garden where their more compact height will sit well on windowsills in a vase.

Easy to grow and maintain, these carpet lilies can be planted straight out between January and June and will reward you year after year with summer-long colour.

Supplied as a pack of 10 bulbs size 10/12 bulbs in a fiery mix of reds, oranges and yellow.

Top Tips
Give lilies a good mulch to keep the roots cool and keep well-watered when in full growth.
Care Information
  • Lily bulbs can be planted from autumn right through to the summer and are happy planted both straight into the ground or into containers.
  • We supply lots of different varieties so be sure to check the bag they come in for any specific planting instructions.
  • In general lilies are ever so easy to grow and with a sunny spot, frequent watering keeping soil moist (not wet) and a little high potassium fertilizer, you’ll get some fantastic displays.
  • Plant in sun or light shade, where they won’t be disturbed.
  • Dig a hole for each group at least 8in/20cm deep or 3 x the size of the bulb. Spread a 2in/5cm layer of grit all over the bottom to help drainage. Place your bulb onto the gravel and back-fill with soil.
  • Lilies prefer well-drained soil, so on heavy, clay soils which can be too wet, you can grow your lilies in pots, which can then be dropped into borders where you want flowers.
  • After the lily blooms, you can also remove just the flower. Do NOT remove leaves until they have died down and turned brown.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
