Doreen Lily-of-the-Valley Description
An old-fashioned favourite gets an upgrade in this bigger-than-ever variety! Doreen delivers the same sweetly fragrant, bell-shaped blooms as traditional lily-of-the-valley, but in a larger size and on taller, thicker stems. They stay upright and visible throughout the growing season with little danger of toppling from high winds or heavy rains. Makes an outstanding addition to shady spots in the landscape.Convallaria majalis

Lilies Tips & Growing Instructions
Versatile Asiatic Lilies are great for beds and borders, planted among shrubs, along walls, or in containers. They are incredibly easy to grow and few garden pests trouble them. For best results, plant your lilies where they will have good drainage and mix some leaf mold or compost into the soil. Lilies prefer to have their blooms in the sun and their roots in the shade. Try planting them among annuals or perennials that will keep their roots cool. Always allow the leaves on the stalk to turn yellow and fall off as part of the lily's natural growth process. This ensures that the bulbous underground part of the plant has gotten enough nourishment and will mean greater growth next year. Each year watch their beauty increase as they multiply!
There are literally thousands of lily varieties and hybrids on the market today. Some of our most popular varieties include Tiger Lilies, Oriental Lilies, and Trumpet Lilies.
