Oriental Lily 'Baferrari' (Lilium). An elegant and fragrant lily for a bright garden! The 'Baferrari' Oriental Lily is a sophisticated variety that brightens the garden with its brilliant white flowers and soft yellow center. Its intoxicating fragrance and abundant flowering from mid-summer to autumn make it a must-have for beds, borders, and floral arrangements. With its large size and spectacular bloom, this lily adds a touch of refinement to any outdoor space. Plant from September to November for earlier flowering the following year. In the ground: Ideal for beds, borders, and cut flower gardens. In bouquets: A fragrant and luminous flower that enhances interiors. Extended flowering from mid-summer to autumn.

Install this lily in sun or partial shade, in loose, well-draining soil. Plant the bulb with its base down and its tip up, at the depth indicated for its packaging. Prepare a wide enough space so that the roots can find loosened soil around them. If the site is exposed to wind, provide support before the stems grow tall, to avoid damaging the bulb later. After planting, water to bring the soil into contact with the roots, then adjust watering based on the actual soil moisture.

After flowering, remove faded flowers but keep the leaves green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant rests. Wait for the foliage to naturally yellow before cutting dry stems. In a container, pay particular attention to drying out and avoid letting water sit in the saucer. For your bouquets, keep enough foliage on the plant in the garden and use a stable vase. Lilies are ornamental plants that are not edible and are very toxic to cats: keep bulbs, plants, cut flowers, and vase water out of their reach.

Planting guide

Plant well.Grow beautifully.

Growing method

Install this lily in sun or partial shade, in loose, well-draining soil. Plant the bulb with its base facing down and its tip facing up, ensuring the planting depth is appropriate for the conditioning. Prepare a planting hole wide enough for the roots to find loosened soil around them. If the site is exposed to wind, provide support before the stems grow tall, to avoid damaging the bulb later. After planting, water to settle the soil around the roots, then adjust watering based on the actual soil moisture. After flowering, remove faded flowers but keep the leaves green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant's dormant period. Wait for the foliage to naturally yellow before cutting the dry stems. When planted in a container, pay particular attention to drying out and avoid leaving water in the saucer. For your bouquets, leave enough foliage on the plant in the garden and use a stable vase. Lilies are ornamental plants that are not edible and are very toxic to cats: keep bulbs, plants, cut flowers, and vase water out of their reach.

Soil and care

The right care,at the right time.

Watering

Water at the base when the soil starts to dry below the surface. While the stems are growing and buds are forming, maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging the soil around the bulbs. After flowering, continue to monitor moisture as long as the leaves remain green. In containers, check the potting mix more often in hot or windy weather and allow excess water to drain. Adjust each watering based on rainfall and reduce watering when the foliage naturally yellows.

Soil type

Prioritize humus-rich soil that retains moisture while allowing excess water to drain. Check drainage after rain: water should be able to leave the root zone. Work the soil when it is dry enough to avoid compaction. Adapt amendments to its actual texture. For potted plants, use appropriate potting soil and a pot with drainage holes. Keep these openings clear and avoid any water accumulation in the saucer.

Fertilization

A balanced fertilizer intake promotes abundant flowering. Respect the dose indicated on the fertilizer packaging and measure the quantity before applying it. Take into account the compost and other inputs already made to avoid feeding the same plant twice. Distribute the product according to its instructions for use; avoid concentrated contact with roots or storage organs.

Seasonal care

Install this lily in a sunny or partially shaded spot, in loose, well-draining soil. Plant the bulb with its base facing down and its tip facing up, ensuring the depth is appropriate for the conditioning. Prepare a sufficiently wide hole so that the roots can find loosened soil around them. If the site is exposed to wind, provide support before the stems grow tall to avoid damaging the bulb later. After planting, water to bring the soil into contact with the roots, then adjust watering based on the actual soil moisture. After flowering, remove faded blooms but keep the leaves that are still green. These allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant goes dormant. Wait for the foliage to naturally yellow before cutting the dry stems. When planted in a container, pay particular attention to dryness and prevent water from accumulating in the saucer. For your bouquets, leave enough foliage on the plant in the garden and use a stable vase. Lilies are ornamental plants that are non-edible and highly toxic to cats: keep bulbs, plants, cut flowers, and vase water out of their reach. Throughout the seasons, observe new shoots, soil moisture, and the condition of the stems. A durable label will help you locate the planting during its dormant period. Clean tools after cutting diseased parts and remove debris that degrades around the base of the plant.

Container growing

A garden,within reach.

Container gardening requires planning for the root volume and the final height of the plant. Choose a stable pot with drainage holes and a substrate suitable for planting. Leave enough space to respect the recommended depth and spacing, rather than crowding plants to immediately fill the pot. Place the container in the indicated exposure and regularly check the moisture, especially in hot or windy weather. A pot is more exposed to temperature variations than planting directly in the ground. Therefore, plan for a wintering location compatible with the plant's needs and your region's climate from the start. Install this lily in full sun or partial shade, in loose soil that drains well. Plant the bulb with its base facing down and its tip facing up, respecting the depth appropriate for its conditioning. Prepare a sufficiently wide spot so that the roots find loose soil around them. If the site is exposed to wind, provide support before the stems grow tall, to avoid damaging the bulb later. After planting, water to bring the soil into contact with the roots, then adjust watering based on the actual soil moisture. In winter, protect the container according to the plant's needs: its roots are more exposed to cold than when planted directly in the ground.

Garden associations

In goodcompany.

Companion plants

To accompany the 'Baferrari' oriental lily, you could consider perennial geraniums or campanulas. Choose neighboring varieties based on their height, flowering period, and the colors you wish to combine. Above all, ensure that their exposure and water needs are suitable for the same location. Keep enough distance so that the leaves do not hide young shoots and so that you can easily access each plant during maintenance. These pairings serve to create the garden's aesthetic; they do not guarantee protection against pests or diseases. Adjust the layout after observing one growing season.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions,answered.

How to successfully plant Oriental Lily 'Baferrari'?
Plant this lily in sun or partial shade, in loose, well-drained soil. Plant the bulb with its base down and its tip up, at the depth indicated on the packaging. Prepare a space wide enough so that the roots can find loosened soil around them. If the site is exposed to wind, provide support before the stems grow tall, to avoid damaging the bulb later. After planting, water to bring the soil into contact with the roots, then adjust watering based on the actual soil moisture.
What light should I provide for Lilium 'Baferrari'?
The recommended exposure is from full sun to partial shade. Observe the light in the chosen location in the morning and afternoon, as the shade from trees or buildings changes throughout the day. Also, consider neighboring plants: their foliage may cover a young planting as it develops. In a container, place the pot where you can move it if conditions become too hot or too shady. Suitable exposure must go hand in hand with appropriate soil and watering. If you move a plant started indoors outdoors, gradually accustom it to garden conditions to avoid too abrupt a transition for the young leaves.
How to adjust the watering?
Water according to the actual soil moisture, taking into account rain, heat, and wind. Check below the surface before deciding to water again: soil that is dry on the surface may still be moist at the root level. Direct water to the base and allow it to penetrate, without keeping the plant in saturated soil. Containers generally require more frequent checks because they dry out faster. Make sure their drainage holes remain clear and empty any saucers that collect water. Also, adapt care to the plant's cycle: active growth and a resting period do not require the same watering.
What to provide for container gardening?
Container gardening requires planning for the root volume needed and the plant's final height. Choose a stable pot with drainage holes and a suitable planting medium. Leave enough space to respect the recommended depth and spacing, rather than overcrowding plants to fill the pot immediately. Place the container in the indicated exposure and regularly check the moisture, especially in hot or windy weather. A pot is more exposed to temperature variations than planting in the ground. Therefore, from the outset, plan for a wintering location compatible with the plant's needs and your region's climate.
What care should be planned after the growing season?
After flowering, remove faded flowers but keep the leaves green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant rests. Wait for the foliage to naturally yellow before cutting the dry stems. If in a container, pay particular attention to drying out and avoid leaving water in the saucer. For your bouquets, leave enough foliage on the plant in the garden and use a stable vase. Lilies are ornamental plants that are inedible and very toxic to cats: keep bulbs, plants, cut flowers, and vase water out of their reach.
