Easter Lily

Easter Lilies are great Spring plants that provide beautiful blooms indoors. Eater Lilies originated in Japan and were imported until World War II, when U.S. growers began growing the plant themselves. Now, the U.S. is one of the main providers of Easter Lilies worldwide. Getting the blooms to open near the ever-changing Easter date is a challenge for many growers. Because of this, you will find lilies in various phases of blooming throughout the Spring.

Light

Like most flowering plants, Easter Lilies prefer a bright spot to perform their best.  They would prefer a spot protected from direct sunlight. Although they can survive in bright light, their lifespan will be shortened.

Keep in mind Lilies prefer consistent, warmer temperatures. So placing your plant in an area away from heat and air ducts will keep it happiest.

Transplanting in Your Garden

Once your plant has finished blooming and the danger of frost has passed, your can transplant it to your garden for more blooms in the summer.

As the leaves start to brown, prune back, and watch for new blooms to start forming in June or July.
