Easter lily keeps giving.
After the last bloom has withered and has been cut away from your Easter lily, you can continue to grow your Easter lily, and even plant it outside in your garden to enjoy for years to come, says the Easter Lily Research Foundation. To plant it outdoors, prepare a well-drained garden space in a sunny spot with rich, organic matter. Use a well-draining planting mix, or a mix of one part each soil, peat moss and perlite. Good drainage is the key for success with lilies. To ensure good drainage, raise the garden bed by adding good soil to the top of the bed, thus obtaining a deeper topsoil and a rise to the planting area.
