Lilies can be propagated using various methods, including stem cuttings, seeds, and leaf cuttings. While they cannot grow directly from stem cuttings, they can be propagated from bulbils or bulblets. Seeds can also be harvested and grown from lilies. Asian lilies, Oriental Lilies, Tiger Lilies, and American hybrids can be propagated in the garden. When cared for and left to themselves, lilies will quickly spread out and fill a garden bed over. To separate lilies, dig up a bunch and carefully separate each bulb for planting.
To find the right location for lilies, choose a spot with good drainage and plenty of sunlight. Lilies need a well-drained planting medium, such as sand or other porous soil. If growing lilies strictly for cut flowers, consider planting them in a designated cutting garden where fresh bulbs are planted each year. Choose lilies with buds that are just about to open when cutting them.
Some types of lilies can also be propagated from leaf cuttings. Future research will focus on breeding a lily that is more easily propagated and flowers easily, with a short forcing time and long life. Lilies can be propagated via stems like roses, but some herbs are easy to propagate from cuttings. Lilies can be propagated using stems or leaves, but they must first form bulbils.
There are several production methods available when growing lilies as a cut flower crop, including raised beds in the field, in containers, and in pots. Proper care and attention to detail are essential for successful propagation and maintenance of lilies.
