Care Guide

Lilium ‘Tiny Moon’ is easy to grow, needing only basic care to provide a spectacular summer display.

Planting

• When to plant: Plant bulbs in spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November).

• Depth & spacing: Plant bulbs 10–15cm deep and 15–20cm apart.

• Containers: Use deep pots with free-draining compost; place bulbs with pointed tips facing upwards.

• Companions: Combine with compact perennials, violas, or ornamental grasses for mixed displays.

Watering & Feeding

• Water regularly during active growth, especially in dry weather or when grown in containers.

• Keep compost evenly moist but never waterlogged.

• Feed every 2–3 weeks in spring and summer with a high-potash liquid fertiliser to encourage strong stems and abundant flowers.

Pruning & Maintenance

• Remove faded flowers promptly to prevent seed formation and encourage bulb strength.

• Allow stems and leaves to die back naturally after flowering, as this feeds the bulb for the next year.

• Cut stems back to ground level in late autumn once foliage has yellowed.

• Divide and replant bulbs every 3–4 years in autumn if clumps become overcrowded.

Protection

• Hardy in borders but ensure excellent drainage to prevent bulbs from rotting in wet soils.

• In pots, move containers to a sheltered, frost-free spot in severe winters.

• Protect emerging shoots from slugs and snails in spring.
