Planting guide
Sowing & germination
Growing method
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 appropriate for its size. 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 the faded flowers but keep the leaves while they are still green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant goes dormant. Wait for the foliage to naturally yellow before cutting the dry stems. In a container, pay particular attention to drying out and ensure water does not remain 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
Soil & care
Watering
Water the base of the plant when the soil begins to dry out beneath the surface. While the stems are growing and buds are forming, maintain consistent moisture without saturating the soil around the bulbs. After flowering, continue to monitor moisture levels as long as the leaves remain green. For container plants, check the potting mix more frequently in hot or windy weather and allow any excess water to drain. Adjust each watering based on rainfall and reduce watering when the foliage naturally yellows.
Soil type
Choose loose, well-drained soil where water doesn't linger around the roots or bulbs. Check the drainage after a rain: the water should be able to leave the root zone. Work the soil when it's friable to avoid compacting it. Adapt amendments to its actual texture. For container planting, use appropriate potting mix and a pot with drainage holes. Keep these openings clear and prevent any water accumulation in the saucer.
Fertilization
Before adding fertilizer, consider the richness of your soil and the nutrients already present. A soil analysis can help you choose the most useful amendments. If you use a fertilizing product, follow the dosage, frequency, and application method indicated on its packaging. Avoid concentrated applications directly on the roots. Do not use multiple products: an excessive amount of fertilizer does not guarantee better growth or more abundant flowering.
Seasonal care
Plant this lily in full sun or partial shade, 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 planting site wide enough for the roots to find loosened soil around them. If the site is exposed to wind, plan for 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's dormancy. Wait for the foliage to yellow naturally before cutting the dry stems. When planted in a container, pay particular attention to dryness and prevent water from remaining 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. Throughout the seasons, observe new shoots, soil moisture, and the condition of the stems. A durable label helps locate the planting during its dormancy. Clean tools after cutting diseased parts and remove debris that degrades around the base of the plant.
Container growing
Container growing
Container gardening requires anticipating the volume needed for the roots and the plant's final height. 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 fill the pot immediately. Place the container in the indicated exposure and regularly check the moisture level, especially in hot or windy weather. A pot is more exposed to temperature variations than an in-ground planting. Therefore, plan for a wintering location compatible with the plant's needs and your region's climate from the outset. Plant this lily in sun or partial shade, in loose, well-draining soil. Plant the bulb with its base down and its tip up, respecting the depth appropriate for its packaging. Prepare a sufficiently wide area so that the roots 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. In winter, protect the container according to the plant's needs: its roots are more exposed to cold than when planted in the ground.

Companion plants & uses
Companion plants
To accompany the 'Lasting Love' oriental-trumpet hybrid lily, you can consider perennial geraniums or campanulas.

Most importantly, ensure their light exposure and water needs are suitable for the same location. Leave enough space so that the leaves do not shade young shoots and to allow easy access to each plant for maintenance. These combinations are meant to compose the garden's decor; they do not guarantee protection against pests or diseases. Adjust the arrangement after observing one growing season.
Garden use

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
How to successfully plant the 'Lasting Love' Orienpet Lily?
Plant this lily in a sunny or partially shaded spot, in loose soil that drains well. Plant the bulb with its base facing down and its tip facing up, at the depth indicated on the packaging. 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.
What light should I provide for the oriental-trumpet hybrid lily 'Lasting Love'?
The recommended exposure is sun to partial shade. Observe the light in the chosen spot in the morning and afternoon, as the shade from trees or buildings changes throughout the day. Also consider nearby plants: their foliage can obscure 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 acclimatize it to garden conditions to avoid too abrupt a transition for young leaves.
How to adjust watering?
Water according to the actual soil moisture, taking into account rain, heat, and wind. Check below the surface before deciding on further watering: soil that is dry on the surface may still be moist at root level. Direct the water to the base of the plant and let it 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 water-retaining saucers. Also adapt care to the plant's cycle: active growth and a resting period do not require the same amount of watering.
What should I plan for container growing?
Container gardening requires forethought regarding the necessary root volume and the plant's final height. Choose a stable pot with drainage holes and a suitable growing medium. Leave enough space to accommodate 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 a plant in the ground. Therefore, plan for a wintering location from the start that is compatible with the plant's needs and your region's climate.
What care is needed after the growing season?
After flowering, remove faded flowers but keep the leaves, which are still green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant's dormancy period. Wait for the foliage to yellow naturally before cutting the dry stems. If in a container, pay particular attention to drying out and ensure water does not remain 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.
