Product Description
Lily Bulbs - Starlette
This is one lily that is almost too eyecatching to be real. It has tawny orange on the inside and outside of the petals, with dark purplish-red in the center of the petals. This bulb is a classic for a good reason!

Planting Instructions
Before you plant your Lily, choose a sunny spot. Well-drained soil is a must for lilies to do their best. Lilies do best in full sun but they can tolerate some shade.
Lilies look very nice when planted in groups of 3-5 bulbs, space them about12 inches apart so they have room to grow. Small lily bulb varieties should be planted 2- to 4-inches deep, and larger lily bulb varieties should be planted 6-inches deep. Space each group about 3 to 4 feet apart so they can grow to their full mature size.
The soil should remain moist. Watering a substantial amount once a week is usually more desirable than a few light watering during the week. During the hot months of course watch your soil and do not let it dry out. Water as needed.
Mulching your Lily garden during the fall and winter is advised. Spread the mulch back in the spring as the lily stalks emerge from the soil as it will no longer be needed.
If your soil needs amendment, fertilize the lily garden in the early spring using a 5-10-10 is usually a good choice.
Remove the dead flower heads as soon as they die off. This gives the plant energy back to the bulb for next season.
It is strongly suggested that you dig up and divide the lily bulbs every three or four years (the bulbs will multiply). Replant the bulbs in new patterns and holes, and if possible, extend the lily garden area you have already been using.

A Garden Standout
These lilies have performed very reliably in my Baton Rouge, LA, garden. I've made sure they are in raised beds and not too much afternoon sun. Everyone who passes by comments on them.
Review
Very striking
I love dramatic flowers, and these lilies live up to my standards and expectations! The colors are striking, and the plants seem hearty and healthy the first year. I planted them in mid-spring (in New England), and they first bloomed in early July. Each plant has 5-8 blooms on it.
