"Easter" Lily

I bought some during easter time. They have died out.. so I dug the bulbs out of the pots to put them into the ground... all these little guys started falling out everywhere.

Are they baby bulbs?


Here is "mom"

babies .. ?

baby?

another look?

Yep, those are baby bulbs. Go ahead and plant them but not quite as deep as the large bulbs.

cool! I did read taht if they try to flower to but it off and not let it.. Is that correct?

I suppose that is helpful when they are tiny but they may just put out foliage for a year and then give you one or two blooms in following years. Personally, I like to enjoy the 1 or 2. Be sure to deadhead so that they don't waste their energy on making seed, usless that is what you want.

I put babies around the stems of the mother so I know who they are. If planting bulblets from scales I plant just under the surface (about and inch or so) and usually cover with some wire to keep off critters, in the shade - for the first couple of years.
