Lilium bulbiferum, commonly known as the Orange Lily or Fire Lily, is a perennial plant native to Europe. It is known for its striking orange flowers and is often found in meadows and open woodlands. The plant undergoes a dormancy period during the winter months.
Lilium bulbiferum requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers moderate humidity levels. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings.
土壤
The plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that is rich in nutrients. Good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
肥料
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 should be applied during the growing season. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks to support healthy growth and flowering.
换盆
Repotting should be done in early spring before the growing season begins. Carefully remove the plant from its current pot, trim any damaged roots, and place it in a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining soil.
传播
Lilium bulbiferum can be propagated through bulbils or by dividing the bulbs. The best time to propagate is in the fall after the plant has finished flowering. Plant the bulbils or divided bulbs in well-draining soil and water thoroughly.
修剪
Pruning is necessary to remove spent flowers and dead or damaged foliage. This helps to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's overall health. Prune after the flowering period has ended.
毒性
Lilium bulbiferum is toxic to pets, particularly cats. Ingestion can cause severe kidney damage and other health issues. All parts of the plant are toxic, so it should be kept out of reach of pets and children.
