Exotic looking! Be patient with Martagon Lilies as sometimes the 1st year they focus their energy on establishing roots and bulb growth; however, season 2 should produce a jaw-dropping display. They bloom just before and with the Asiatic Lilles and are hardy down to zone 3. Martagon Lilies once mature can produce a profusion of flowers on a single stem - a butterfly favorite!
Martagon Lilies appreciate a dusting of lime annually to the soil. Note: Do not over water and do not add moisture-retentive amendments such as peat; well-drained soil is ideal. Try to maintain a some woodland leaf compost on top of the soil, but still must have good drainage down where the lily is planted. Dislikes being disturbed once planted.
