Growing Instructions for Zone 3b

Asiatic lilies are hardy bulbs that perform well in colder climates and can remain planted in the ground through winter in Zone 3b.

Planting Time
Plant bulbs in spring once the soil can be worked or in early fall before the ground freezes.

Location
Choose a location with full sun to partial sun and well-drained soil. For containers, use a high-quality potting mix that provides good drainage.

Planting Depth

• Plant bulbs about 4–6 inches deep.
• Place the bulb with the pointed end facing upward.
• Cover with soil and water thoroughly.

Spacing
Space bulbs 6–8 inches apart, or plant several bulbs together in containers for a fuller display.

Watering
Keep soil evenly moist during the growing season, especially for container-grown plants, but avoid overly wet soil.

Fertilizing
Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring when shoots emerge and again as buds begin to form.

Mulching
Apply mulch around plants to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

Winter Care in Zone 3b

• Bulbs planted in the ground are winter hardy and can remain in place.
• Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulb stores energy for the next growing season.
• Container-grown bulbs can be protected by moving pots to a sheltered location or insulating the container during winter.

With proper care, Pot Tiny Rocket Lilies will produce vibrant, fiery blooms that bring compact color and elegance to patios, containers, and garden beds year after year.
