Am I the only one who doesn't know about leaf cutting? Game changer !
Leaf cuttings are the least know method of propagation. A good one to try out in spring. Thanks for watching and have a wonderful day.
@@GardeningatDouentza how often do you water the leaf?
I was like whaaaa!?! 😮😃🤯
but it is only the kinds that make bulbils?
А я попробовала, у меня не получилось😢Зато получилось вырастить лилию 9 футов в высоту и много маленьких лилий 5-6 футов.🎉🎉🎉Заходите и смотрите❤❤❤🥰😜👍👍👍
Excellent tutorial, when I saw bulbils for the first time I wondered if they were galls and I had an insect problem.😂
But instead of a problem, it was a blessing. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend
@@GardeningatDouentza Big relief. You too.🌿
I highly suggest having a big pot for your “garbage” cuttings!
I started doing that and surprisingly a lot grows that people say shouldn’t or won’t!
I’ve gotten so many Lilly’s doing this!
And I after they bloom and form seed pods I wait about a month and then I dig them up and separate them and I always get really good new growth before winter comes!! When summer comes back around the next year I have so many more Lilly’s 🥰
That's a good idea. Thank you
Your knowledge is amazing! I only got into gardening during lockdown as a way to keep my sanity and I'm absolutely hooked. My first plant was a star gazer lily, only the one, so I'm absolutely thrilled to find this video. It's spring 22 now, so I've got a few months to wait but I'm definitely going to try my hand at the scale method. Thanks so much for sharing all you've learned; it's very much appreciated. 🤗
It is good great that lockdown has done some good and brought people to growing things. Lilies are fabulous plants and I understand why you, like me, are attracted to them. Some of the lilies I potted in the greenhouse last autumn are poking up and that is so exciting. Welcome to the channel and happy growing.
Never knew about the leaf propagation. Going to try this.. 😍 thank you 😊
Can the bulb be cut, to get the pieces you need! I'm just starting out with my lillie garden, and this is my second year!
It is not a normal way to propagate lilies. You may have some success but not as much as you would have from scaling.
Same question I was about to ask. I have a huge surprise Lily a neighbor gave me and was hoping to be able to cut into two or even four sides to spread in the garden. Had heard as long as each piece has a few roots you could grow them? 🤔
In theory lilies could be propagated by chipping but it it not the normal recommended way to propagate lilies so will be less successful. I attach two videos I made a out chipping.

So helpful, thank you!! We’re moving house so I’m taking my chances in digging them up now and taking them with us. Nothing to lose I guess 🤷♀️ but want some backup methods, so it sounds like leaf props are the way to go! I had no idea!! Again, thank you for this. ☺️
It all depends how advanced your lilies are now. Hope it works out for you.
I'm always amazed watching your videos. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge with us. A delight to come into your greenhouse and learn something new.
Thank you so much. It's always a pleasure to hear from you and have a great day.
Hello🌸🌸💖
It's a very cool and amazing video.
I was touched when I saw this.
I hope you become a warm neighbor.😊
I hope you'll always be full of love and happiness.💖🐾🌸🍒🌸
Thanks for visiting
Aren't Lilies so versatile! It is also the first time I have seen propagation of a Lily via leaf cuttings. How interesting.
Lilies certainly are! Have a great Sunday ☺️
I deal with lillys alot.. There everywhere! I don't plant the bulbs from the big ones right off iether. They do spread!!❤
Some lilies spread really well. Just a bonus really. They do benefit from dividing every once in a while.
Perhaps to avoid removing scales without part of the basal plate, it might be a good idea to score the basal plate slightly prior to pulling on the scale. But perhaps I'm talking rubbish....
I guess that might be an idea, especially if you're not planning on replanting the lily. This basal plate was pretty thick though. It does vary from lily to lily so others are not as problematic. Thanks for the thought and have a great day.
Thanks for putting very informative gardening article in video mode
Glad you liked it
Okay I'm going to try everything you did
Thanks for the informative and lovely video. Lilies are one of my top favorite flowers. Now I know how to make more of them🌸🌹💐💕
Always worth doing. Thanks for watching and have a super day!
Great info, thanks Rachel. The other thing about seed propagation of course is that you don't necessarily know what you will get, especially from a hybrid plant. Fun to find out but as you say, a long wait.
Yeah, seed growing is for the adventurous because with hybrids you never know exactly what you will get. Thanks for watching and sharing and have a great day.
Hi Rachel, thank you for this information on Lily’s. They are one of the most beautiful flowers. Like Casablanca Lily’s or the Lily of the valley.
Oooh, Casablanca is fabulous! Thanks for watching and have a super day.
I have an orientpet lily that produces tons of little bulbs underground around the base. Removing them I'm the winter has given me a plant that produces one. flower the first season. 5 flowers the second year.
Wow, a great do-er!!!
Here in Canada/Toronto where I live. We have a lot of snow and rain in February or March, then if the Lilies bulbs start in pots indoors, how often do I water the bulbs in a week or month? Thanks.🙏😊
I would water well once then wait until the pots dry out before rewatering, especially if you see no growth above the soil yet. If you see growth then rewater whenever the top inch of soil is dry. I planted lily bulbs in pots last autumn in the greenhouse so the same procedure applies. Here's the video, in case it's of interest...
ruclips.net/video/OGW_ps_J7Hs/видео.html
I have to hang out with you !!! 😊 You’re videos are just great ! Thank you 🙏🏿
😊 thank you
I love this! I had no idea you could propagate lilies by using their leaves! Thank you for taking the time to do this video! I found it very helpful! Would love to see the aftermath of your work though! Follow up video?! ❤️🙏🏻
Thank you. I have made a lot of update videos on my channel on these lilies, one of which is linked in the pinned comment on this video. You should be able to find the others by doing a RUclips search on 'Douentza lily'. The tiger lilies were planted out this summer.
Very informative! Thank you for the explanation! It’s exactly what I was looking for❤ off to planting now! Warm greetings
Great to hear. Good luck with that planting.
After 2 years of critters eating my lilies; they bloomed for the first time this year and I'm absolutely obsessed. I'm going to propagate them and give them to my friends who admire them almost as much as I do.
Thank you for this video! I'm curious about cross breeding hybrids, it's that a process you're familiar with? I would love more information!
That's great and I wish you every success. It's great to have loads of lilies. I have never tried hybridising them myself but it should be fairly straightforward.
Excellent video, right to the point, good explanations. I have a lily that my mother in-law gave to me years ago, she started from seed. Over time it has not done well. This spring I see it try to come up again. If it does well this summer, going to try to reproduce it using one of your methods. Thank you for the info. Watching you from Ontario, Canada.
Go for it! Hope it works out well 🌷🌻🌼🌺🏵️
Do you re-use your pots and platners? If so, do you clean them before re-sue? If so, what do you clean them with???
Thanks in advance.
I don't usually clean pots. I'm not saying you shouldn't, I'm just saying that I don't usually clean pots. The exception is pots that are brought indoors for houseplants - they get washed in warm soapy water. Orchid pots get sterilised. Once a year my used clay pots get washed in soapy water.
Thank you so much for this information. I just started doing gardening and I just love it. I have a question, I am from Newfoundland Canada and I can’t find the horticultural sand, Can I use potting soil to do the leaf propagation method? Please let me know
Greetings from Wexford to Newfoundland. You could substitute perlite for sand, if you can source that. Hope this helps.
I have lots of lillies, great video. Thanks from Waterford 😃
Lilies are great and I feel that once you get going with the propagating you're going to have a heap more lilies. Greetings from Wexford to Waterford.
Do you have a picture/video of the scalings you took, would be interesting to see how they look now.
Sorry to be replying to your message so late. It went into 'held for review' for some reason and I've only just retrieved it. This Thursday I will publish a greenhouse tour video that shows the result of this scaling propagation. See you there.
Thanks for the information. I'm standing in my garden with my phone in hand looking at my tiger lily bulblets!
An easy and rewarding propagation. The ones I sowed in this video are coming along nicely. You can see them in my latest greenhouse tour video. Best of luck!
My stargazer lilies arent multiplying? They are 3-4 yrs old i think. Why dont they multiply? They bloom.
Try propagating by scaling.
Is it possible to save a lily that had the stem broken in half in June? It had flower buds on it 😔 I'm zone 6b. Thank you so much for such an informative video!
It all depends on how much of the lily leaves were left! Lilies gain nourishment from their leaves during the summer and this leads to flowering the following year. If your lily has been compromised and lost half its leaves, I recommend a fertiliser to boost the remaining leaves. Fingers crossed for next year!
This was interesting and informative...when you suggest doing the scale harverst? If you dont have money for potting soil and cotainers as such could you just put the scales in ground in garden napear the ilder bulb..and let nature do what she does??
Collect scales in autumn, as mentioned in the video. Of course you can try just propagating them in the ground but you will end up with far fewer plants, if any.
Thanks for the valuable info
Can lily sticks be grown?
Do you mean can lilies be propagated from stems? The answer is no! Thanks for watching
@@GardeningatDouentza 👍
What is the actual time to put the bulb in soil. Just now I bought Asiatic Lilly bulb & other one is very small seeds. Please let me know. Thanks.
Lilies are best planted in autumn or spring, either in the soil or in pots. You may find this video of mine helpful...
ruclips.net/video/7OaiDEkhKNo/видео.htmlsi=PWXNCnx6wp-tOpXr
Thank you for all of the helpful information! I've been caring for two species I bought fully grown for a few years ago and your video will help me bring my own into the world!
Glad I could help!
Hello, can i plant a lillum from a stem and flowers without bulbs and roots,i have a bundle of lillum flowers as gift and i want to plant them, and thank you in advance❤
No, sorry, that will not work.
NO sabia que retomaba de las hojitas
Rachel thank you. Very interesting. I enjoyed.
You're so welcome!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
For the leaf cuttings, If I do not have a cold frame what can I do? Put them in the fridge?
There are videos out there that talk about how to do scaling, using a fridge, but there are disadvantages. With the leaf cuttings I guess you will need to try bringing them into the house. Let me know how you get on if you do it.
I always thought that the bulbils between the leaf nodes were hibernating lily beetle grubs 🙈
Oh dear, lots of lost baby lilies. But now you know!
Why for not six? You are greedy and keeping the two best secrets for yourself.
I don't understand what you're saying?
Thanks for the information! I notice your shop bought ones are Nightrider, the type I got too recently from a garden centre, the Nightrider does seems to be one of the most popular lily varieties in garden centres!
Yes, they were indeed Nightrider and I thought of you when I bought them 😉
Thank you! It's my first time to buy a Stargazer Lily Plant...one for me and one for my daughter-in- law! I am awed at the beauty of the big pink flowers! And it's fragrance too! How nice to find out that they have bulbs underneath that could be planted...and other methods to choose from. Thanks for sharing! I will try and see if I will succeed! Thank you and God bless!
Thanks for the lesson I really appreciate it ❤
Always welcome
We moved into current house about 11 mos ago and a little over a week ago these 2-2 1/2' stems popped up about a foot apart. They were fully bloomed 2 days ago and found out they are red spider lilies. They do not have any leaves at base of stem, so i am wondering if they are a year old or had went dormant for some reason. Is it better to leave them for s year or two before trying to propagate them? They are so beautiful and can't wait to have bigger clusters of them. Thank you for showing how to dig the bulbs up. Yours is only video i have found that shows this. If i do dig to propagate, I read to wait to dig bulbs up 2 weeks after they have shed all of their petals. Do you agree? Thank you for all of this great information. Previous tenant was a gardener. We have at least 6 rose of sharons, a persimmon tree, 3 Asian pear trees that produce round fruit and one that produces pear shaped, purple iris, orange lilies and a few plants and trees I am still trying to identify. One has shiny dark green leaves with thorns and find a fruit on it that was shaped like the root beer barrel candy but color of a hazelnut shell, cut into it and it had a slight apple smell with one seed that was almost as long as the fruit but smaller in diameter. Wish i could post a pic of it and the red spider lilies.
Oh and it got my green thumb going. Planted a Hyacinth, bought a passion flower that I am keeping in the house until next spring, and a small orchid for a houseplant.
Red spider lilies are not lilies. They are Lycoris radiata. So many different unrelated plants are called 'lily' in the vernacular that's why we really need to tune in to botanic names. If your plant is lycoris then nothing in this video applies to it. I cannot grow lycoris outdoors here. Maybe it isn't the red spider lily you have?
By the way, it seems that you really are catching the plant bug. Hyacinths can be the slippery slope - so beautiful and fragrant and easy to grow 😊
My yellow Asiatic lily produced bulbils from the top end to the lower end of the stems. When I propagate them, but our winter cold only just around 10 degrees Celsius, do I need to put the bulbils into a fridge till spring coming?
Grazie del video, lei è bravissima, molto preparata✌️💐🥰
Grazie tanto 🌷🌼🪻🌸🏵️
Can you please explain how to grow from seed pods??
Thanks for the suggestion. Different lily seeds require different treatment. I will think about making a video to cover the most common sorts. Have a good day.
What about growing in super hot weather 😬😬😬 is it possible?
Lilies need cold and grow I hardiness zones 5-9, depending on variety.
What do you mean by "cold frame"?
Here you go...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_frame
Te veo desde Perú, es la primera vez que veo un bulbo en el tallo por eso busque videos y me salio este encantador video, mis lirios estarán divinos.
YOU'RE SWEET AND SMART MUM.LOVE YOUR VIDEO!👌👌👌👌
We would like that you show US thé results
There are lots of updates on my channel. Here is one of them...
ruclips.net/video/x6TKz3xvILE/видео.html
You have some really great ideas. However, I would not throw anything away, even if it doesn't look lively. No harm in just putting it back in the soil and see what happens. If nothing happens, nothing lost. But if those pieces choose to create roots, then you have easy propagation. 😂
I also read otherwise regarding the Asiatic lily propagation by leaf.
"Using foliage for Asiatic lily propagation is an unusual method, but it does work in time. Gently pull downward on the outer leaves of the plant **when they are still green but after the plant has bloomed.** Dip the ends of the leaves in rooting hormone and insert them into 2 inches (5 cm.) of moistened sand. My Asiatic lilies bloom only in summer. So this propagation would take place in early August for me. Going to give it a try! I sure do appreciate these ideas.
Good job!
Interesting about the Asiatic propagation. Let me know if it works!
wow, i just planted a few different kinds. i had a few bloom last year in my yard, tiger lilies. and they were beautiful. so i got different colors and gonna start them indoors, bec it is still pretty chill here in NS, canada. i cant wait to learn to propagate these, i do already, hydrangeas, autumn joys, boxwoods, lavender. wish i knew how easy this was 10 or 15 years ago. had the plants just never knew i could split n spread them out., im so excited about next few weeks. just starting to feel like Spring around here. its cold by the ocean.
Plants for free and the promise of spring. What more could a gardener ask for! 😊
❤wonderful and very informative video!! thank you so much sweetie. i bought two bulbs of stargazers lilys which i love. i learned alot from your video !! god bless you !!❤ jessie in texas/united states
That's great, Jessie. Thank you for taking the time to tell me. Stargazer is a real cracker of a lily!
Wow super ideas
I bought some from Adli. All of them sprouted 🥰. My problem is where I live and pray they survive and root well. I plan to buy more because buds look so beautiful, and they haven't 😅😂 even bloomed yet. I'm so excited
Lilies are very rewarding plants. Hope yours do well for you
what is that tan mulch stuff?
Where in the video is it?
So what is the equivalent of a cold frame for zone 4b? Does cold frame refer to a certain temperature?
A coldframe would generally be frost-free.
@@GardeningatDouentza oh ok, that makes sense now. Thank you! I look forward to your videos every day after work. I've learned so much.
@@FearnotIamwithyou That's nice to hear. Thank you.
Which month must be done?
1:08 in the video for scaling. Everything is in the video.
Thanks for sharing..stay connected..
I have two lilies one is a dark wine color and the other one is a light pink given to me by my mom the pink and the red my sil’s mom. I had them outside and the snails chew all the leaves. Brought them inside and they have a few leaves but haven’t flowered again in two years now? Bulbs looked healthy and huge when transplanting. They are beautiful but stubborn like me i guess? Lastly a neighbor gave me a surprise lily which I wanted one since I saw their beauty running on a hill.
Lilies need to be outdoors. They can't be grown as houseplants. I think you're going to have to chance yours outdoors again
But I have some small red lillies whose flowers have produced some seeds or fruit? What are they and how can I use them? Each flower has drooped over and swollen inside to produce these bumpy objects!
You will know the seed is mature when the capsules brown and split open of their own accord. In order not to miss this moment, cover the seed head in a small paper bag. Lily seed is usy flat and brown. Surface sow the seed immediately in pots in a protected environment. Germination rate and speed will depend on the type of lily you have and the length to eventual flowering is 1-7 years, depending on type. I cannot know which lily you have. Hope this information helps.
Can you give more detail on the sand/soil mixture? Trying to figure out where I can get what I need. Thanks!
I don't have exact measurements for the horticultural sand mix. Maybe a quarter sand or less
Thanks for providing great information on propagation of this particular plant.
I was really looking for these informations.
Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
How can you cold storage if you have them in the sand and you don't have any place like you do or a greenhouse to put them in? Thanks and I really enjoyed listening to you
Ah, that will take a different video to answer
I got my first lily plant and i am so grateful to have found your video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, i learnt many things today.
You are most welcome. Lilies are one of the best plants. I hope you have a long and fruitful relationship with yours. Happy growing.
Thank you for sharing this
You're very welcome
Fascinating video, you are such a natural teacher. I came to see if the scales could be planted and before I knew it I now know how to start new plants via leaves too! Astounding! Thank you so much
Thank you for dropping by and I'm so glad you found the video useful. Welcome to the channel
stem cutting not possible?
No, it's not
Dea lady thank you so much for this...this year i had a huge orange colored liliums and i learned that it's also called asiatic lily..it's about to almost finish last of its blooms ..
Your lily sounds gorgeous. Thanks and have a great evening
I have a lilly in a pot an d last year it had 39 flower heads on it. What i wondered is should i dig it up and see if i can divide the bulbs, sorry but im not sure exactly what type it was.
You could try dividing it or just repotting and feeding well.
Scaling well that explains a lot. Last year, I wanted to give one of my bulbs away. While digging, I severely damaged one. I thought, I can't give this away. I've cut it in half. So I put it and the scales that fell off a side and dug out another one for my friend. Then I took the damaged one and put all of its parts back, but off to the side in case it just rotted it, it wouldn't harm anything.
Judging from this year's growth, both halfs lived along with most of the scales.
Aren't plants just amazing 😊
@GardeningatDouentza Definitely, though I think it might have been two years ago now. As I have two distinct sizes. Ity bitty, the shock of being dug will probably kill them. Then the very small ones. Maybe I should of let them get a little bigger. But they might be just big enough to make it.
🙏🙏🙏❤️
thanks for the tips, no more buying for me.
Woot Woot😊
Happy to help!
Wow, I am amazed with your knowlege. I found your video because I've just bought a few bulbs and wondering what to do with them. I have no clue about geminating lilies. Can I still grow these now August? Sounds like these bulbs won't germinate in hot weather? I am in New Jersey. We got rain yesterday and it is very humid today. Would humid weather with some rain be good conditon for these bulbs to sprout?
Hi there, Amy, and thank you for your message. Usually lily bulbs are planted in autumn or spring. If planted in autumn you shouldn't expect them to kick into growth until spring. Unfortunately, if you have bought bulbs that have been dry (unplanted) all summer then your chance of success is slim. Hope this helps.
@@GardeningatDouentza I see. Thank you!
So pleasant to watch your video. Thank you.
Welcome
Very nice important
Thanks
For international gardening channels like your own - it would be nice to know what zone/s you live/are planting in as many of us watch your channels but are from other countries & different zones
(EG: I live in Western Canada in zone 4a/4b - our winters can get down to minus 30/40 degrees below freezing)
Thank you for your suggestion. It is very welcome. I do mention my hardiness zone in the garden tour videos although you should know that those 'zones' are not a measurement used in many parts of the world, including my own. I'm not sure how zones are relevant in a propagation video, where everything takes place in a greenhouse but I will think about how best to get that information across in future where relevant. Thank you and have a great day.
@@GardeningatDouentza a winter in my greenhouse/cold frame will not be the same as yours especially if not heated or protected - having an idea of how cold it actually gets in your region would help so appropriate measures can be utilized to compensate for the differences *shrugs* - Just my slant on it all
I live in NZ and did scaling with my lilies before winter. I had huge bulbs and split them up and put all the scales straight back into new soil. The majority all seemed to grow new sets of bulbs and are currently flowering nicely. I actually had no idea what I was doing..... I just assumed that it was correct. Wasn't too far off! Thanks for the video!
I'm surprised that worked but happy for you
@@GardeningatDouentza Im very surprised after watching your video and others. I was trying to figure out why it was successful and it could be down to the soil in NZ as it is very volcanic and super rich in nutrients.
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
thank you 😊😊
Welcome 😊
when you say cold period what's the temperature?
Well it works if your temps drop to about -2C because that happened to me last winter. You can see the update in the latest greenhouse tour video.
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
Great explanation of various methods.
Glad it was helpful!
Also, your cyclamen looks amazing!
Thank you!
Lily's definitely take time. Ty for your video
Welcome
Nice sharing ma'am😊❤
Fantastic video. Thank you so much.
You are welcome
I have an Asiatic lily that broke off at the stem. I cut the stem on an angle and then placed it in a tiny jar with water and placed it on the windowsill by my sink in the kitchen with indirect sunlight. It started to grow a small bulb like structure at the top.
Is it even a bulb? If so, when and how do I remove it to plant it? It is the end of June and all my other asiatic lilies are tall and blooming.
Well, good news! I have never heard of Asiatic lilies forming bulbils but I would suggest you treat it as the tiger lily bulbils mentioned in this video. No need for the ericatious potting mix though. Don't worry about your baby lily not being in sync with the rest of your flowering lilies. If it is starting from scratch it will take some time to reach flowering size. Good luck!
@@GardeningatDouentza Thank you. At the moment it still looks very green with a new green stem growing up from it. Can you tell me the time frame of when the bulbils turns color to pick it off? I've had this plant grow in my garden for 5 years and have never seen bulbils grow on it.
This year I bought 2 Lillie's in 4" pots in the grocery store had developed seeds like at 10:35. I kept watering the the thing the seeds still attached to the stem now they sprouts leaves out of. What do I do with it. I transplant into a bigger pot and put 2 in one pot.
Yes, it is time to transplant your lily seedlings. Careful not to break any roots. Choose community pots and feed with a well-balanced liquid fertilizer.
@@GardeningatDouentza I will thank you so much. 🥰😍.
So fun to make many plants out of one bulb. Thank you.
You're welcome
Great video! Thank you for sharing all these info! Unfortunately it’s not exactly what I needed, but I cannot find what I did wrong anywhere and I thought perhaps to try and ask here… let’s start saying I am trying super hard to keep plants alive, and too often I fail. Last year I bought 9 lilies bulb, 3per type, and planted them in the garden. 7 came out and were gorgeous. This spring I was waiting for then to come out again, but as soon as they showed up they got completely eaten by slugs. I tried everything to remove those parasites but at the snd the only solution was to take out the only 2 lilies still alive and put them in a pot. By digging I was very careful and found several small bulbs… they propagated! I put all of them in different pots and waited. But nothing grew and the two that were still alive did not grow of a millimeter. I am afraid I killed them all! Do you think there is something I can do to rescue them? Those bulbs were small, no roots, and a bit dry. Thanks to anyone who could help
It is hard to know what is killing your lilies although you do mention slugs. I also don't know where you are. Lily beetle can be a problem too. Alternatively it can be that your soil is alkaline and you are planting acid-loving lilies or vice versa. I have naturally acidic soil so in this case Asiatic lilies quickly dwindle and die here. Hope this helps
Perhaps this video can help
ruclips.net/video/7OaiDEkhKNo/видео.html
@@GardeningatDouentza thank you for replying! I live in Austria, something like a valley in between mountains. I honestly have no idea what type of soil I have in the garden… first time I have a garden and learning everything from scratch by making mistakes I guess. Don’t even know how to figure out what soil I have, but I will google it and try to find out. The lillies I planted where ordered on line last year, and already last year I had problems with slugs eating them, but at the end they managed to grow. I ordered Netty’s pride, Forever Susan and Altari, those were the names. This year, as soon as they put one little leaf out, the slug were eating it up. I tried to get rid of the slug, but the plants were still not growing. So I removed them from the garden and put them into pots. By digging I found many onions, and put also those in pots. But nothing is growing
Amazing video
Hi, so grateful for the information, Lily's always where one of my favourites, I have got an Asiatic one and it stopped flowering I bought it this year. In the video you mentioned a cold green house, unfortunately I don't have one because I don't have a garden either I just have some plants in a backyard, but my Lily's are indoors and i would like to know what i can do to propagate them. I was wondering if you can give me any advice. Thank you for all the very useful information that you were kind enough to share with us.
Thanks for your message. Why do you bring your lilies into the house?Why not leave them outdoors in your yard? Lilies need winter cold for their long-term health. You can try lily dividing and scaling indoors but you will need to use a fridge to provide cold for your scales.
@@GardeningatDouentza thanks for you rapid reply I put my Lily's indoors because i bought them in a pot and I wanted to enjoy there beauty while they lasted. Now that they have gone dormant I would like to know what's the best way for them to have them sprout again next year!!!! Which is the best way, to pull them out of the soil and put them in plastic bag in the fridge or to put them in a closed tray and leave them outside? Buy the way I forgot to mention that I live in Malta 🇲🇹 and our winter is not that cold. thanks again.
@@gracefenech5762 I'm sorry I don't know the best way to grow lilies in your climate.
