About Lily

Lilies are elegant, premium flowers grown from bulbs. For North Indian terraces, planting F1 Asiatic hybrid bulbs in late autumn yields spectacular, upward-facing blooms by late winter. Avoid giant native field lilies (like Crinum) in small containers, as they produce massive foliage and rarely bloom when root-bound.
