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, at the depth appropriate for its packaging. Prepare a planting hole wide enough for the roots to 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. After flowering, remove faded flowers but keep the leaves green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant goes dormant. Wait for the foliage to yellow naturally before cutting the dry stems. In a container, pay particular attention to dryness and prevent water from sitting 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.
Soil and care
The right care,at the right time.
Watering
Water at the base when the soil surface begins to dry. During stem growth and bud formation, maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging the soil around the bulbs. After flowering, continue to monitor moisture as long as the leaves remain green. For container plants, check the potting mix more frequently 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
Opt for loose, well-drained soil where water doesn't linger around the roots or bulbs. Check the drainage after a rain: water should be able to leave the root zone. Work the soil when it's workable to avoid compacting it. Adapt amendments to its actual texture. In containers, use appropriate potting mix and a pot with drainage holes. Keep these openings clear and avoid water accumulation in the saucer.
Fertilization
Before adding fertilizer, consider the richness of your soil and any previous applications. A soil analysis can help you choose the most beneficial amendments. If you are using a fertilizer product, follow the dosage, frequency, and application method indicated on the packaging. Avoid concentrated applications directly on roots. Do not use multiple products: an excessive amount of fertilizer does not guarantee better growth or more abundant flowering.
Seasonal care
Install this lily in sun or partial shade, in loose, well-draining soil. Plant the bulb with its base down and its tip up, observing the planting depth indicated on the packaging. Prepare a planting hole large 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 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, which are still green. They allow the bulb to replenish its reserves before the plant's dormancy. Wait for the foliage to naturally yellow before cutting the dry stems. If planting in a container, pay particular attention to drying out and avoid letting water 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 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 helps locate the planting during its dormancy. Clean tools after cutting diseased parts and remove decaying debris around the base of the plant.
Container growing
A garden,within reach.
Container culture requires planning for the necessary root volume 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 the 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 a plant in open ground. Therefore, from the outset, plan a wintering location compatible with the plant's needs and your region's climate. Plant this lily in full sun or partial shade, in loose soil that drains well. Plant the bulb with its base downwards and its tip upwards, respecting the depth appropriate for its conditioning. Prepare a planting site 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 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 those planted in the ground.

How to successfully plant Tiger Lily 'Sweet Surrender'?
Install this lily in sun or partial shade, in loose, well-drained soil. 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 kind of light should I provide for Tiger Lily 'Sweet Surrender'?
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 plant as it grows. 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 rainfall, heat, and wind. Check below the surface before deciding on further watering: 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 retain water. Also, adapt care to the plant's cycle: active growth and a resting period do not require the same inputs.
What to consider for container gardening?
Container gardening requires planning for 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 allow for recommended planting depth and spacing, rather than crowding plants to fill the pot immediately. Place the container in the recommended exposure and regularly check the moisture level, especially in hot or windy weather. A pot is more exposed to temperature variations than a plant 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 provided 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. When grown in a container, pay particular attention to drying out and ensure water does not remain 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.
