Yes, you can grow Asiatic lilies indoors, but they are best treated as a temporary houseplant that needs to be moved outdoors for a dormant period in winter to survive for multiple years. To grow them indoors, use a large pot with good drainage, a quality potting mix, and provide plenty of bright, direct sunlight for at least 6 hours a day. Please be mindful of pets!
You need to store lily bulbs between 3–8°C because this cool range keeps them dormant and keeps the energy stored, prevents rot, and stops premature sprouting until ready to plant (not during a frost)
Frost locks the soil and stresses the bulbs, preventing them from rooting properly. Plant them when the ground is soft and frost-free consecutively for 7-10 days so they can establish strong roots and bloom beautifully. If your eager to plant, then start them in pots and store in a shed or garage that’s frost free (3-8c), then move outdoors once the risk of frost has passed.
Lilies are highly toxic to cats if eaten and if the pollen gets on their coats. We do not recommend lilies for feline households, indoors or out. Although our lily varieties are not deadly to dogs, if ingested they can cause GI upset so please plant them out of reach and chose pollen-free varieties. Always check with your vet if unsure.
Bloom times vary depending on variety, but most of our lilies flower between June and September. Each product page and label lists exact bloom months so you always know what to expect.
Yes! Lilies are famously low-maintenance and thrive even with a bit of neglect. Perfect for beginners, the forgetful, and anyone who wants maximum impact with minimal effort.
Both work beautifully. Lilies thrive in pots, borders, raised beds, and small gardens. Just make sure the pot is deep enough (30cm+).
Plant bulbs 15cm deep (ruler in booklet), cover, water, and let nature do its thing.
Absolutely. Lilies are perennial, meaning they return bigger and better each year—your garden’s version of compound interest.
Nope! Lilies are low fuss, leave them and let them do their thing. In years to come, the bulb will split and multiply so if you wish to dig it up then and regift to another you can, or if moving house and wish to take your lily with you.
Some are! Our double Asiatic lilies like Elodie, Must See, and Flore Pleno are naturally pollen-free, making them perfect for allergy sufferers and tidy gardeners.
Most Wright & Wild boxes include 3 or 6 premium bulbs, packaged in branded tissue, eco-friendly shredded paper, and net bags—ready to plant or gift (please store in the fridge until ready to plant).
Plant bulbs autumn through spring. As long as the ground isn’t frozen solid, you’re good to go, please store bulbs in the fridge or cool area (3-7degrees) until then.
Our lilies range from 60cm to 150cm, depending on the variety. Each product listing includes height information so you can plan your display.
Pretty much but we cant guarantee. Lilies are the low-maintenance queens of the garden. Setting weekly remdinders in your caldandar on a day you know you will be home we find helps. Water after planting and during very dry spells, and they’ll do the rest.
Yes, there is one kryptonite in the lily world and that is the lily beetle. A beautiful bright red bug but deadly to your plants. Treatments can be purchased and physical removal of the bug and the larvae works best.
