The absolute size of the bulbs varies according te the species. In planting, the general rule of thumb is te pla-nt liies about three times as deep as the vertical diameter, L.e. 15 cm (6 in.) deep for a 5 cm (2 in.) bulb.. Place them in the garden in the faîl any time before the ground freezes. Although they do well in most types of soil, avoid thin, gravelly soil which Will net hold water. The only exception is the Madonna lily which should be planted only abeut one centimetre (two inches) deep in late sùmmer. Although lilies are hardy to -40 CfF, they have no outer cevering on their buIS and de net store food. Thus, they need te be protected and nourished in cool, inoist, rich soul. That's why we say iles like te have their heads in the sun and their feet in the shade. To accemplish this, mulch well with organic material (peat moss, pine needles, etc.) te guard against rapid water loss. Until planting time arrives, enjoy hules as cut flowers. Allow them te absorb as much water as possible by standing them in a pail of cdean water in cool place. Cut off* the bottom of the stem, obliquely, with a sharp knife and ensure that there are ne leaves in the vase water when you arrange them. Do use cut flowers food but do not exceed the recemmended dosage, which can cause the leaves te, yellow. To Se sure, use only iu1f.tbe stateiLwqux4.
