Don't throw out those Easter lilies!

[BetterHensandGardens]

Here's a link describing how to plant Easter lilies back into your garden after the holidays rather than just throwing them out: http://www.betterhensandgardens.com/2010/03/31/dont-throw-those-easter-lilies-out/ :tools

Thanks for that link Betterhensandgardens!!

Yeah, if i do get or someone gives me a easter lily or any plant i try planting it in the garden. One year i had potted hyacinths that i planted in the garden after the blooms faded. Always better to plant them in the garden then to throw them away.

mine bloom about 2 months later than the ones at the stores

They will DEFINITELY multiply. Unfortunately, after 7 years, I think my (former) easter lily "bit the dust." It did multiply, doubled, each year after planting. Guess I'll go see about one on clearance to replace it, although I already have a lot of iris and several types of daylillies and tiger lillies...
