I have had mine in a pot for the last ten years but they are not so good this year only 4 flowers~will do repot and feed for next year I think.I still have some lilies bought this year to flower though.

Sounds a good idea Arlene :) I repot mine every year 2 renew its compost & i also feed them weekly with tomatoe food :)

I have been using these slow release bulb granules but maybe should try the tomato feed~are you using it full strength?

20 Jul, 2009

 

Yes Arlene & i water them every 10 days :)

~thanks Jacque! will give that a try!Funny thing is I threw some unknown lily bulbs( bought cheaply because no one knew what they were)into a pot and they have been terrific~loads of flowers!
The trouble is I don't like the bright fluorescent orange...!
