Whether as a houseplant, on the balcony or in the garden bed - lilies are truly intoxicating. Whether intensely fragrant, two-tone, tall or multi-flowered species, they all have similar requirements in terms of location.
Lilies like it sunny above and shady below
The sun in sight and the shadow at your feet
All lilies love sunny to shady locations. If it is bright and warm, these plants are usually floriferous. Darker varieties should be planted in partial shade. The root area is grateful if it is in the shade. Ground cover and summer flowers for planting under the lilies can be valuable for this.
The floor requirements are easy to meet. It is superficially important to lilies that they are not standing in standing water. Otherwise, they want a floor with the following characteristics:
- well loosened up
- permeable
- nutritious
- rich in humus
- slightly sandy
- wet
tips and tricks
