Thank you very much for making these videos. I just finished taking care of my Lilies. I followed your videos on how to do it, and I was amazed by how many bulbs I had. I ended up planting two extra containers!. My 5 year old son helped me, and now he's claiming those extra containers 😅. Thank you, and lots of blessings to you and yours!
Thank you SanaA! I was never able to get my lily's to grow properly for years. But after watching this video, I learned how to divide the bulbs and now, I have so many Lilies growing in my garden. My garden is bringing me so much joy. Thank you so much for creating these helpful videos.
Thanks for your lovely comment.😊. I am so happy to learn that. I am over the moon knowing that my videos are helpful to you. I hope your garden flourishes beautifully and you have the better bloom season every season.💕😊
Fantastic series of videos, thank you very much. I’ve only got a single small pot with lillies, they are quite pot bound and your videos showed me exactly what I needed to do.
Thank you for making these videos. I love these plants and will follow your advice in the Fall. Soo excited to find out how many bulbs my Asiatic Lily plants produced. Keep up these informative videos!
Thankyou for the videos of the plant. I have an asiatic lily and the leaves are turning yellow and I was so worried that it was dying. I never knew the process of the plant itself. I’m gonna make sure to follow the care as you’ve shown !
Very nice explanation. Your accent is comprehensible. Please share as to in what time the bulblets bloom - do they take the same time as the normal size bulbs? In north India these are still blooming (January) and will dry up by February middle. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind comment. These bulbs start to bloom sometime in early to mid-summer ( June, here in the UK). The Bublets which are the little ones, if they have a flowering capacity will bloom earlier than the fully mature large-sized bulbs. My small bulblets start blooming in May.
Great video! So I bought 2 tiger lily bulbs that did amazing. They have now started to yellow so I stopped watering. I'm not sure if they have split, I guess I'll have to wait till they have completely dried out. My concern is, should I give these bulbs a dormancy period before re-planting? I see most people store them during winter.... but I live on a tropical area so winter is not a concern. should I store them in a dark dry place for a couple months or am I good to replant immediately?
that's great. so a common thing with lilies is they need a dormant period of cold winter. this dormancy aids for the bigger and better blooms the next flowering season. they need at least 8-12 weeks of cold dormancy, please watch my video on how to store Asiatic lilies, you will get an idearuclips.net/video/qj5RjFXLBRE/видео.html
Excellent harvest of bulbs. I am in southern hemisphere Australia and late last autumn planted 6 good sized Asiatic lilies into the one large pot with premium free draining potting mix. Had a fantastic blossoming of large red lilies during spring and into early summer. Magnificent. The flowering time is long at maybe 3 -4 weeks then the petals eventually dropped and I have clipped off the remaining seed pods. They are currently stalks with good green foliage which I will let wither to around mid-late autumn before removing the stalks from the soil. Then I will have to undergo this bulb harvesting process you have shown us in this video. I will be absolutely amazed if I get 12-15 bulblets and up to 20-22 bulblets from each of the 6 bulbs originally planted. All my original bulbs were red flowers and quite tall plants. This poses a bit of a problem as I would like much more diversity in the colour and size. So I will buy a range of lily bulbs with different size and flower colour to mix in with my harvest of red flowering bulbs. Will need quite a few more good outdoor pots and potting mix by the sound of it. Your Asiatic lily bulb videos inspired me to plant up these initial bulbs. I think lilies are an excellent bulb to plant to decorate a courtyard area. They flower magnificently. Remain as green foliage for a good long time, and it is wonderful to see them shoot through the soil in late winter/early spring to repeat the cycle. I have really enjoyed your videos on the Asiatic and Oriental lilies. Thank You. Your channel is excellent for me to get ideas on how to transform my large courtyard area. 💐🌹🌻
Thanks a lot for this extremely encouraging comment here, I really appreciate that.I am so happy to read about your journey with the asiatic lilies this year, and I really wish you have a great harvest at the end of the season. I have a vision in my head to have a dedicated cut flower garden for the different types of lilies, hopefully one day when I have a bigger garden. I am so glad my videos have been inspiring , that gives me encouragement.

Hi Sana Always a pleasure to see your presentation and also learn from you and your experience and knowledge. My question is what if they are washed in water to remove the soil wont that be easier? Unless off course there be a reason why you dont?
Thankyou for ur kind words. Yes washing away will be much easier . I didn’t do it personally because we have had rains for weeks now , everything is so soggy. I wanted to avoid subjecting the bulbs to more wetness considering they have been sitting with wet feet for quite some time now .
I have some asiatic lily plants that just got done with blooming. Looking forward to do this when the foliage dies. Question - what do you do with the tiny bulbs?
Nice informative video for saving bulbs & the storing of bulbs. Your bulbs are in very good condition after blooming. Bulbs become more healthy & mature for next season, bulblets are in good quantity . Lucky you are. mine are ot of refrigerator, now in pots , waiting for sprouting. bought tree lilies & tiger lily & easter liies from garden center last week , stored in refrigerator till temperature lower to 15C here than plant them . do you have any experience of Tree lilies ?
Thankyou 😊. I shall be sharing the storing of bulbs as well soon. Yeah the bulbs are good , no damage as yet. Wow you are nice and ahead on the work with lilies . My tasks got delayed due to continuous rains here . I didn’t personally grow tree lilies. I have seen one at my neighbour , it behaves pretty much same as asiatic lilies . Multiplication might not be so extensive as the asiatics.
What climate zone are you in? We are in what was 4a and is now 4b due to climate changes. We do get quite cold here, and seeing you plant lilies in above ground vessels, do you have any concerns about cold temps over the winter? Normally, we keep our over-the winter perennials in the ground for protection because those in above ground pots tend to freeze-out. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks.
HI, what do you do with the bulblets? Can you make a video on what to do or how to organise and plant the bulblets please? 😊 Very interesting video btw
I have planted them separately; most produce one or two flowers each. there is a video in the whole playlist. part 5 of the Asiatic lily care series. thanks I am glad you enjoyed the video.
I also ordered 10 bulbs of Asiatic Lily and now they started to germinate and searching for more info and then found ur video😊, I also hope to propagate mine bulbs like yours. But in summer the temperature will hit 45 degree Celsius so do u have any tips about how to save and store this bulbs during that time of season so that I can reuse this bulbs in next winter.BTW love from India 🙏😊
I think white bugs are grabs from beetles and no need to throw the soil, just mix some compost with soil and cover your bulbs with mulch. It's gonna give you great result.
Hi @Green Edyfrio. Having grown them for more than 3 seasons now, I have come to learn that the bulbs with sizes above 1 inch in diameter mostly produce one flower at least, which I normally use as cut flowers. I know that question " are all of those worth keeping?" i am trying to experiment different things with the tiny ones , stay tuned for next couple videos 😉
@@SanaAsGARDEN I am doing tests as well, i dig up mine and gone try overwinter them out of the ground (some with coco peat, some with woodchips and some with nothing.). Maybe one day i will show you pictures of the tests...(just dont know how)
The smallest bulbs will take between 2 to 4 years of a non-flowering "lily grass" stage, where it will stick one or a few leaves straight from the bulb to above ground, to get photosynthesis energy. It will store this energy in the bulb in order to create more leaves the following year. This stored energy can be seen in the scales - the more scales it has, the more energy us stored and the bigger the bulb is. Once it has enough energy stored (generally up to 4 years for the smallest bulbs, but the bigger bulbs may bloom either the following flowering period or a year after the next flowering period), it will be big enough to flower. It usually starts out with 1 or 2 flowers the first year, with more flowers in subsequent years and usually hits it's max flower amount in the 3rd year or so.
Hi , there is no secret whatsoever 😊! It is very common of asiatic lilies to produce many daughter bulblets ,ruclips.net/video/_A34STi3p5E/видео.html in this video I have mentioned in detail about soil. I hope it helps
Lily bulbs tend to produce a lot of babies. If you want a larger amount of babies that will develop flowers in 4 or so years, you can either plant the mother bulb more shallow or more densely together. Planting more shallowly will let the mother bulb use its scales to create more bulbs because there's not enough underground stem to create lilies from - the upside is that you get significantly more babies; downside, you lose the flowering-size mother bulb as she becomes bunch of babies instead. Planting them at regular depth but closer together, there is less room for bigger bulbs, so it will develop a lot more smaller bulbs instead. The mother usually creates 1-2 flowering-size bulbs (smaller than the original though, might get 1-3 flowers the following year rather than the larger mass it would've presented) and a good amount of babies, as the babies grow into smaller spaces around each other. The risk for this is that they might develop bulb core rot as they become so dense that water doesn't drain as easily - you should water significantly less and monitor the soil moister at bulb depth rather than at the usual inch-deep. If they do develop core rot, you should throw away any bulbs that are rotten, don't maintain their scales together as a single entity, or if they display what looks like bruising in the center - otherwise you risk the bulb passing on the rot to others in storage. Also, due to having to grow around each other so closely, the bulbs may look deformed, more diverse geometric shapes than the usual bulb shape you'd expect. As far as I can tell, the shape doesn't seem to affect development later.
I've also noticed that lilies also like to bulb off up the stem, above the parent bulb. Recently, my roommate and I observed a bulb that had tilted under the soil and thus had more underground stem growth. The resulting stem bulbs were both a larger amount than on it's sisters' stems (planted in the same planter) and were a larger overall size average than the same-parent babies that occurred at the usual closeness if it had been planted upright. Definitely something we're going to experiment with next planting season!
The smallest bulbs can definitely be planted the following year after dividing, though you'll want to plant them more shallow than the bigger bulbs. Maybe only an inch or 2 deep, rather than at the same level as the biggest ones. The bulblets will only send up "grass" looking leaves, what I call ""lily grass" for up to 4 years, until it gains enough energy to grow its flowers. So if you want a lot of the same flowers as the mother bulb in 4 or so years, it's worth cultivating the baby bulbs now.
Hii sana thank you for ur information u doing really well on ur Lilly looks great. My quarantine. What u going to do with the baby one. Does it grow well if we plant them...? And when the best time to dig bulbs aout after booming...? Im Wait for ur answer thank you
Hi thank you.😊 i am trying couple different things with the baby bulbs, storing and planting , too much to explain in a comment🙈. I just filmed the whole process, in midst of editing, shall upload soon, so stay tuned for it. the best time to dig out is in fall/autumn(depending up on where u live) this time of the year for me
Depends on the size of the babies. The smallest ones might need up to 4 years of what I call the "lily grass" stage to get enough photosynthesis energy to the bulb for flower development. The larger small bulbs might need a year or 2. and the bigger bulbs will likely develop flowers the following flowering year.
I've seen some videos where they propogate using just scales of the bulb....are these different types of liliums? Mine bulbs are similar to yours....so this is the right way to do it?my liliums are currently budding....just want to know before hand post flowering and when they wither.
yes propagation of Asiatic lilies can also be done with scales, I did some tests with storing my bulbs in different ways( update video coming up soon.) this is the easiest and straightforward way to divide and multiply your lilies. mine has also sprouted and starting to bud up. you won't be dividing up anytime soon not until the whole plant has dried up. please watch the part 1& 2 of this series for better understandingruclips.net/p/PL9j1cxXyrLT2Tk1wUUWv9n22hIp5afHfp
The easiest way I've found to propagate by scaling is to take the whole bulb and plant it shallow, at bulb size depth rather than 2-3 times as deep as the size of the bulb. I've noticed that this allows the bulb to develop bulbs from the scales with less scale loss caused by drying up/resource competition, while still gaining nutrition from the cluster/original's roots until their own roots can get established. In this way, energy is used to bulb from the scales rather than the way it usually does, because it's too shallow to develop new bulbs up the stem. The upside of this process is you usually get about as many bulbs as there are scales (minus some of the innermost scales that are too small to bulb). The downside to this process is that scale bulbs are usually too small to develop flowers immediately (i.e. the next flowering period). Instead, the bulb will go through up to 4 years of what I call the "lily grass" stage, where it will develop leaves to get energy from photosynthesis to store and develop the bulb until it has enough stored energy to flower.
Ahh interesting, I've never known you can grow from scales the above mentioned way. I personally feel the bulblets is the way to go. i started with 9 bulbs 4 seasons ago and I harvested close to 400 of flowering capacity . and hundereds of tiny ones.
@@SanaAsGARDEN I also prefer bulblets, it's just a little bit easier for me! To be fair, though, they both have their trade-offs. Scaling results in more babies, but has a higher resource cost - you have to pay more attention to watering/feeding because once they bulb-off they detach from the parent bulb and use their own, very small, roots instead. This means that they can't go as deep as the parent could when getting food and water, so they need it more often. Generally, a shorter, more shallow planter, like those used for succulents/cacti is easier to use for them since it uses less water overall and is very apparent when you need more water - plus you can put it on a plate/bowl to reduce how much you have to water overall, as long as you let the bowl and soil dry out once in a while (bulb core rot is no one's friend!). Having too deep of a planter for a shallow-planted bulb can waste resources (water sinks to the bottom so you'd have to use more water than necessary each time, and as the water goes down, it also pulls nutrients/minerals down with it). Waiting for flowering-size bulbs to produce bulblets generally results in 1-3 smaller flowering sized bulbs and a handful of babies - less babies than in scaling, but also generally larger, with them more likely to flower in 2-4 years rather than the likelier full 4 years that you'd wait for scaled babies to flower. You get less bulbs overall, but flowering sooner. They use overall less resources throughout the year, but 2-3 times a year, they require an attention/resource splurge - the time when you plant the bulbs and the extra time resources that go into that; then mid-year, when you do a fertilization boost; and then at the end of the year, when you have to divide them up (and store them, for the climates that are too cold to keep them alive). If you wanted to, it is also possible to do both - even on the same bulb! The scaling process is slightly different than my preferred, though. Doing the combo method, you have to peel off some of the outer scales, making sure that each one gets as close to the root as possible (if you get a small bit of root, awesome!). On the biggest bulbs, you'd be able to peel off up to 3-4 layers and still have the bulb big enough to flower (remember, scales are the physical representation of stored energy, each one contributes energy that culminates in leaf and flower growth. As long as the bulb is still flowering size, it will flower, even after losing some scales; though depending on the size, the total amount of flowers from that bulb may be less than the previous year if the bulb is smaller than it was the previous year after taking some scales). Plant the scales shallow, with about half the scale underground. You want the scale to be able to get as much water and resources as possible right away. Sometimes, the bulblet will develop first, and sometimes the root will. The bulblet's goal is to get a leaf above ground as fast as possible to start photosynthesis for energy. The root's goal is to get as much water/minerals as fast as possible for health and development. In each case, you want it to get the energy as soon as possible, the singular scale has a very small, finite amount of stored energy and you want it to start it's own independent supply as soon as it can. And yes, I've learned that all these methods work for pretty much all lilium lilies (though the process is different for other lily types, due to differences in bulbs) - i.e. oriental lilies, asiatics, tree lilies, etc.
What do u mean by dying ? Is the stem dying ? if its the stem then its normal. Is the Bulb dying ? Is It dry ? Have your plants done blooming ? If they have done blooming its normal for the plant to die back . I hope it helps.
The bulblets which are more than 1 inch in diameter should have atleast 1 bloom the next season and the smaller tiny ones will take 2-3 seasons to bloom
@@tenzinpema7173 It might be bulb rot or some kind of pest. Definitely try digging them up, even if it's early in the season. Early pulled bulbs can be salvaged if there's nothing too wrong, but if there is something wrong, better to tackle it earlier for the best chance to save them. If it's bulb core rot or root pests, you'll have to throw them out (away from other plants and not in the compost). If it's pests and the bulb looks like it may be salvageable, rinse them well and/or spray them with a good pesticide or alternative anti-pest (my roommate and I use liquid hand soap, applied directly on the bulb pests and let sit for a few days. Give a good rinse until the water is suds-less, then plant as usual). If it's bulb core rot, you'll have to throw the affected ones away (away from other plants and not into the compost). Look for any bulbs that: 1. Do not maintain it's shape (the scales fall from the plant at touch rather than maintaining its shape); 2. Have slimy blackness at the root portion joined to the bulb (if the rot is on the roots distant to the bulb but the bulb does not appear to be affected, remove all the root protrusions), or 3. Look like they're "bruised" near the center of the bulb (bruising is an early sign of bulb core rot, and means the bulb is not salvageable). If the bulb doesn't seem to have any issues affecting it, it might be able to be saved. Let them air dry anywhere from a couple hours (hot, dry, sunny day) to a couple days (cool, dry, cloudy, or indoors) before storing/planting as usual (though in a separate container either way in case you missed some, you don't want it to spread to your healthy plants). Mark them with a note to pay attention to watering, water them less and give them more time between watering for the soil to dry. Bulb core rot happens when there's a problem with the drainage - the 2 issues I noticed with my plants was that 1. the mat I had some of my planters on wasn't letting water out and 2. in some planters, my parent bulbs were planted too densely, causing the babies to grow more closely together and thus making a seal-tight barrier against drainage. If bulb core rot is your issue, some things you might do to prevent it are to: add some drainage aids to the soil (a bit of compost or sand mixed into the potting medium will loosen it up and provide better drainage), plant bulbs less densely, check for proper drainage from the pot throughout the year, and water less overall, letting the soil dry out in-between waterings. Whether it's bulb rot or root-eating pests, you should isolate the soil. Don't reuse it in other planters, don't add it to the compost, etc. For all intents and purposes, the soil in those planters is now "plague" soil and will spread the disease to other plants if reused. My roommate says you can get away with using it for annuals, because there isn't a core bulb and the plant will die off at the end of the year anyway, but not for bulb plants or perennials. But you should definitely wait at least a year or 2 before using it - let it dry out to stop the spread of root rot, and let the pests (hopefully) starve off. I still wouldn't use it for bulbs even after 5 years, though - because some rot and insects are long-lasting nuisances. If you work with the plague soil, either do it last or wash/sterilize your hands/tools *really* well before handling healthy soil/bulbs. If it's not bulb core rot or pests, then I have no idea.

But in summer the temperature will hit 45 degree Celsius so do u have any tips about how to save and store this bulbs during that time of season so that I can reuse this bulbs in next winter.BTW love from India 🙏😊
Store them in a cool place away from direct sun.
Please watch my video on how to store asiatic lily bulbs. I have given a detailed description in it.
@@SanaAsGARDEN ok thanks 🙏
Thank you for this video
My pleasure
how did lilies manage before humans...
Can the bulblets be planted to flower?
yes they can, in 2-3 seasons .
What is the painstaking experience if not digging those bulblets out before planting please?
ruclips.net/video/E6Y6ZqOh3Yg/видео.html you can see in this video, what happens if you dont devide the bulbs in autumn. 🙈
I think white bugs are grabs from beetles and no need to throw the soil, just mix some compost with soil and cover your bulbs with mulch. It's gonna give you great result.
oh good to know! thanks for the tip
Hi Sana. Do you know with ones gone give flower this next season? Worth keep all the bulblets or just abouve x size?
Hi @Green Edyfrio.
Having grown them for more than 3 seasons now, I have come to learn that the bulbs with sizes above 1 inch in diameter mostly produce one flower at least, which I normally use as cut flowers.
I know that question " are all of those worth keeping?"
i am trying to experiment different things with the tiny ones , stay tuned for next couple videos 😉
@@SanaAsGARDEN
I am doing tests as well, i dig up mine and gone try overwinter them out of the ground (some with coco peat, some with woodchips and some with nothing.).
Maybe one day i will show you pictures of the tests...(just dont know how)
@@greenedyfrio338 oh wow exciting! There’s a lot I can learn from you. Please send me ur pictures on instagram. My link is on my YT homepage
@@SanaAsGARDEN
I will try as soon as i can.
The smallest bulbs will take between 2 to 4 years of a non-flowering "lily grass" stage, where it will stick one or a few leaves straight from the bulb to above ground, to get photosynthesis energy. It will store this energy in the bulb in order to create more leaves the following year. This stored energy can be seen in the scales - the more scales it has, the more energy us stored and the bigger the bulb is. Once it has enough energy stored (generally up to 4 years for the smallest bulbs, but the bigger bulbs may bloom either the following flowering period or a year after the next flowering period), it will be big enough to flower. It usually starts out with 1 or 2 flowers the first year, with more flowers in subsequent years and usually hits it's max flower amount in the 3rd year or so.
Hi sana, what is the secrete of having so many bulbs produced? Is there any special kind of soil mixture?
Hi , there is no secret whatsoever 😊!
It is very common of asiatic lilies to produce many daughter bulblets ,ruclips.net/video/_A34STi3p5E/видео.html in this video I have mentioned in detail about soil. I hope it helps
@@SanaAsGARDEN thank you🙂
Lily bulbs tend to produce a lot of babies. If you want a larger amount of babies that will develop flowers in 4 or so years, you can either plant the mother bulb more shallow or more densely together.
Planting more shallowly will let the mother bulb use its scales to create more bulbs because there's not enough underground stem to create lilies from - the upside is that you get significantly more babies; downside, you lose the flowering-size mother bulb as she becomes bunch of babies instead.
Planting them at regular depth but closer together, there is less room for bigger bulbs, so it will develop a lot more smaller bulbs instead. The mother usually creates 1-2 flowering-size bulbs (smaller than the original though, might get 1-3 flowers the following year rather than the larger mass it would've presented) and a good amount of babies, as the babies grow into smaller spaces around each other. The risk for this is that they might develop bulb core rot as they become so dense that water doesn't drain as easily - you should water significantly less and monitor the soil moister at bulb depth rather than at the usual inch-deep. If they do develop core rot, you should throw away any bulbs that are rotten, don't maintain their scales together as a single entity, or if they display what looks like bruising in the center - otherwise you risk the bulb passing on the rot to others in storage. Also, due to having to grow around each other so closely, the bulbs may look deformed, more diverse geometric shapes than the usual bulb shape you'd expect. As far as I can tell, the shape doesn't seem to affect development later.
Incredible information. thanks for your input here😊
I've also noticed that lilies also like to bulb off up the stem, above the parent bulb. Recently, my roommate and I observed a bulb that had tilted under the soil and thus had more underground stem growth. The resulting stem bulbs were both a larger amount than on it's sisters' stems (planted in the same planter) and were a larger overall size average than the same-parent babies that occurred at the usual closeness if it had been planted upright. Definitely something we're going to experiment with next planting season!
Hi can the bulblets be planted after dividing it? Cause i dont have winter here in our country soo frost is not a problem. Hope you can answer this :)
Watch my next video for the details ruclips.net/video/qj5RjFXLBRE/видео.html
@@SanaAsGARDEN thanks
You’re welcome 😊
The smallest bulbs can definitely be planted the following year after dividing, though you'll want to plant them more shallow than the bigger bulbs. Maybe only an inch or 2 deep, rather than at the same level as the biggest ones. The bulblets will only send up "grass" looking leaves, what I call ""lily grass" for up to 4 years, until it gains enough energy to grow its flowers. So if you want a lot of the same flowers as the mother bulb in 4 or so years, it's worth cultivating the baby bulbs now.
Good information
Thankyou very much. Am glad you found it useful.
Hii sana thank you for ur information u doing really well on ur Lilly looks great. My quarantine. What u going to do with the baby one. Does it grow well if we plant them...? And when the best time to dig bulbs aout after booming...? Im Wait for ur answer thank you
Hi thank you.😊
i am trying couple different things with the baby bulbs, storing and planting , too much to explain in a comment🙈.
I just filmed the whole process, in midst of editing, shall upload soon, so stay tuned for it.
the best time to dig out is in fall/autumn(depending up on where u live)
this time of the year for me
Hi, your baby bulbs will not flower for one year as need a time to grow properly but next year it will bloom nicely but depends on as you feed them
Depends on the size of the babies. The smallest ones might need up to 4 years of what I call the "lily grass" stage to get enough photosynthesis energy to the bulb for flower development. The larger small bulbs might need a year or 2. and the bigger bulbs will likely develop flowers the following flowering year.
How long have you grown them to get such many bulbs?
This is my 4’th season.
I recently answered in a Q&A video.
Sana please tell me in which season we have to dig annd plant these
Autumn is the best time to dig and plant them
I've seen some videos where they propogate using just scales of the bulb....are these different types of liliums? Mine bulbs are similar to yours....so this is the right way to do it?my liliums are currently budding....just want to know before hand post flowering and when they wither.
yes propagation of Asiatic lilies can also be done with scales, I did some tests with storing my bulbs in different ways( update video coming up soon.)
this is the easiest and straightforward way to divide and multiply your lilies. mine has also sprouted and starting to bud up.
you won't be dividing up anytime soon not until the whole plant has dried up. please watch the part 1& 2 of this series for better understandingruclips.net/p/PL9j1cxXyrLT2Tk1wUUWv9n22hIp5afHfp
The easiest way I've found to propagate by scaling is to take the whole bulb and plant it shallow, at bulb size depth rather than 2-3 times as deep as the size of the bulb. I've noticed that this allows the bulb to develop bulbs from the scales with less scale loss caused by drying up/resource competition, while still gaining nutrition from the cluster/original's roots until their own roots can get established. In this way, energy is used to bulb from the scales rather than the way it usually does, because it's too shallow to develop new bulbs up the stem.
The upside of this process is you usually get about as many bulbs as there are scales (minus some of the innermost scales that are too small to bulb). The downside to this process is that scale bulbs are usually too small to develop flowers immediately (i.e. the next flowering period). Instead, the bulb will go through up to 4 years of what I call the "lily grass" stage, where it will develop leaves to get energy from photosynthesis to store and develop the bulb until it has enough stored energy to flower.
Ahh interesting, I've never known you can grow from scales the above mentioned way.
I personally feel the bulblets is the way to go.
i started with 9 bulbs 4 seasons ago and I harvested close to 400 of flowering capacity .
and hundereds of tiny ones.
@@SanaAsGARDEN I also prefer bulblets, it's just a little bit easier for me!
To be fair, though, they both have their trade-offs.
Scaling results in more babies, but has a higher resource cost - you have to pay more attention to watering/feeding because once they bulb-off they detach from the parent bulb and use their own, very small, roots instead. This means that they can't go as deep as the parent could when getting food and water, so they need it more often. Generally, a shorter, more shallow planter, like those used for succulents/cacti is easier to use for them since it uses less water overall and is very apparent when you need more water - plus you can put it on a plate/bowl to reduce how much you have to water overall, as long as you let the bowl and soil dry out once in a while (bulb core rot is no one's friend!). Having too deep of a planter for a shallow-planted bulb can waste resources (water sinks to the bottom so you'd have to use more water than necessary each time, and as the water goes down, it also pulls nutrients/minerals down with it).
Waiting for flowering-size bulbs to produce bulblets generally results in 1-3 smaller flowering sized bulbs and a handful of babies - less babies than in scaling, but also generally larger, with them more likely to flower in 2-4 years rather than the likelier full 4 years that you'd wait for scaled babies to flower. You get less bulbs overall, but flowering sooner. They use overall less resources throughout the year, but 2-3 times a year, they require an attention/resource splurge - the time when you plant the bulbs and the extra time resources that go into that; then mid-year, when you do a fertilization boost; and then at the end of the year, when you have to divide them up (and store them, for the climates that are too cold to keep them alive).
If you wanted to, it is also possible to do both - even on the same bulb! The scaling process is slightly different than my preferred, though. Doing the combo method, you have to peel off some of the outer scales, making sure that each one gets as close to the root as possible (if you get a small bit of root, awesome!). On the biggest bulbs, you'd be able to peel off up to 3-4 layers and still have the bulb big enough to flower (remember, scales are the physical representation of stored energy, each one contributes energy that culminates in leaf and flower growth. As long as the bulb is still flowering size, it will flower, even after losing some scales; though depending on the size, the total amount of flowers from that bulb may be less than the previous year if the bulb is smaller than it was the previous year after taking some scales). Plant the scales shallow, with about half the scale underground. You want the scale to be able to get as much water and resources as possible right away. Sometimes, the bulblet will develop first, and sometimes the root will. The bulblet's goal is to get a leaf above ground as fast as possible to start photosynthesis for energy. The root's goal is to get as much water/minerals as fast as possible for health and development. In each case, you want it to get the energy as soon as possible, the singular scale has a very small, finite amount of stored energy and you want it to start it's own independent supply as soon as it can.
And yes, I've learned that all these methods work for pretty much all lilium lilies (though the process is different for other lily types, due to differences in bulbs) - i.e. oriental lilies, asiatics, tree lilies, etc.
Thank you
I live in tropical climate please help me asiatic lily flowers but it is impossible to save bulbs for next year flowering
please watch the next videos in my asiatic lily video series, HOW TO STORE ASIATIC LILIES I have explained in detail , I hope it helps
Hii sana can u tell me my bulbs are dying what to do
What do u mean by dying ? Is the stem dying ? if its the stem then its normal.
Is the Bulb dying ? Is It dry ?
Have your plants done blooming ? If they have done blooming its normal for the plant to die back . I hope it helps.
@@SanaAsGARDEN bulbs are dying I buyed it online and store in soil later the bulbs getting damaged
how long the small bulbs can grow to big size ?
The bulblets which are more than 1 inch in diameter should have atleast 1 bloom the next season and the smaller tiny ones will take 2-3 seasons to bloom
Thank you!
You're welcome!😊
I have few of them but all the leaves are turning brown and there is no bloom this season. What can I do about this? Kindly suggest.
Maybe your plants are too small.
But if they are turning brown ,
Follow the part 2 of this Asiatic lily series .
I have been planting them since two years and they are quite big with blooms but this year all their leaves are turning brown and no bloom.
@@tenzinpema7173 It might be bulb rot or some kind of pest. Definitely try digging them up, even if it's early in the season. Early pulled bulbs can be salvaged if there's nothing too wrong, but if there is something wrong, better to tackle it earlier for the best chance to save them. If it's bulb core rot or root pests, you'll have to throw them out (away from other plants and not in the compost).
If it's pests and the bulb looks like it may be salvageable, rinse them well and/or spray them with a good pesticide or alternative anti-pest (my roommate and I use liquid hand soap, applied directly on the bulb pests and let sit for a few days. Give a good rinse until the water is suds-less, then plant as usual).
If it's bulb core rot, you'll have to throw the affected ones away (away from other plants and not into the compost). Look for any bulbs that: 1. Do not maintain it's shape (the scales fall from the plant at touch rather than maintaining its shape); 2. Have slimy blackness at the root portion joined to the bulb (if the rot is on the roots distant to the bulb but the bulb does not appear to be affected, remove all the root protrusions), or 3. Look like they're "bruised" near the center of the bulb (bruising is an early sign of bulb core rot, and means the bulb is not salvageable). If the bulb doesn't seem to have any issues affecting it, it might be able to be saved. Let them air dry anywhere from a couple hours (hot, dry, sunny day) to a couple days (cool, dry, cloudy, or indoors) before storing/planting as usual (though in a separate container either way in case you missed some, you don't want it to spread to your healthy plants). Mark them with a note to pay attention to watering, water them less and give them more time between watering for the soil to dry.
Bulb core rot happens when there's a problem with the drainage - the 2 issues I noticed with my plants was that 1. the mat I had some of my planters on wasn't letting water out and 2. in some planters, my parent bulbs were planted too densely, causing the babies to grow more closely together and thus making a seal-tight barrier against drainage. If bulb core rot is your issue, some things you might do to prevent it are to: add some drainage aids to the soil (a bit of compost or sand mixed into the potting medium will loosen it up and provide better drainage), plant bulbs less densely, check for proper drainage from the pot throughout the year, and water less overall, letting the soil dry out in-between waterings.
Whether it's bulb rot or root-eating pests, you should isolate the soil. Don't reuse it in other planters, don't add it to the compost, etc. For all intents and purposes, the soil in those planters is now "plague" soil and will spread the disease to other plants if reused. My roommate says you can get away with using it for annuals, because there isn't a core bulb and the plant will die off at the end of the year anyway, but not for bulb plants or perennials. But you should definitely wait at least a year or 2 before using it - let it dry out to stop the spread of root rot, and let the pests (hopefully) starve off. I still wouldn't use it for bulbs even after 5 years, though - because some rot and insects are long-lasting nuisances. If you work with the plague soil, either do it last or wash/sterilize your hands/tools *really* well before handling healthy soil/bulbs.
If it's not bulb core rot or pests, then I have no idea.
